I installed the same speakers in my Civic, SPR-17c. They are not "direct fit" like the entire internet says. I had to cut the panels a bit and use those black rings from the package.

Thats how they work in an EK at least.

 

iight. mines are goin in the rear for now. but ill try that 1" spacer and see if that lets me screw down the speakers. if not. imma have to cut around the speaker hole so the speakers sit flush. thanks

 

Raised the car another 1'' all around.
Installed new front speakers
Replaced exhaust bolts.
Yes, it was a busy 2 hours.

 

wash the car and snap some pics

 

Iight i got a battery for my baby, i'm on my way to get it washed and vacuumed air freshener and clean the interior.

Yesssss

 

Installed new wiper vent cowl with all new Ebay'd clips. Even the new cowl doesn't sit perfectly flush on the windshield, which was the whole reason I bought one at a yard in the first place.

Sanded/spray bombed my wiper arms.

 

I recently installed SPS-17's; trimming was needed, I didn't use the adaptor rings however, just piloted new holes. You may get moisture on the back of your speakers, I did, and the plastic moisture barrier in the door doesn't protect the speakers.

I installed foam baffles behind the speakers, keeps them dry, but sound suffered a bit. I'll be cutting a hole in the bottom so they can draw more air and see if that helps the sound.

 

Removed Secondary o2 sensor/installed o2 bung plug (since I am not running OBD1)
Primered my strut bar, painting tonight!

 

Finished up tinting my tail lights a subtle two tone. i like them! They blend with my car very well

 

Well, my friend and i found out why my MPH didnt work, the ECU was shot, so we picked up a new ECU and now its fine.
