Default 6 1/2 inch speakers in 6 inch hole

2011 impreza sedan

I have 6 1/2" speakers, is it possible to get a bracket that will connect them into 6" holes?

When I look at crutchfield or sonics, they say my car is 6 1/2" speakers. But I have them in my hand and I measured them and they are 6", and my 6 1/2" speakers are too large for the default mounting plate.

I suppose I could jury rig some plywood, if it came down to that. But I thought maybe someone here has a better idea.

Strange , newage cars come with 6.5" ,usually aftermarket ones are to deep thats why brackets are a must.
Think 6.5" brackets for impreza should sort You out,there is a guy on ebay who sells printed brackets,could make You thick and size You wish

>which speakers?
Both front and rear. I'm a little disappointed to doesn't have 6x9, but w/e.

They'll fit once you install the speaker mounts, as they taper in.
