Kicker CS Series 1964-1967 Chevelle Kick Panel Speaker Upgrade Kit with A/C

Our 1964-1967 Chevelle kick panel speaker upgrade kit is designed to improve the sound quality in your 1964-1967 Chevelle  by putting 6.5" speakers up front and 6x9 speakers in the rear.  We feel that our 1964-1967 Chevelle  kick panel speaker upgrade kit offers better sound quality than the dash speaker option because you get 6.5" speakers up front instead of 3.5" or 4" speakers.  Also, the location of the kick panel speaker provides better acoustic sound quality than the dash speaker.  If you look at new cars today, they usually have a decent sized speaker in the door panel.  In classic cars, we can't do that due to the door panel designs and overall design of the vehicle (less plastic in classic cars).

For the kick panels in this kit, we use the Custom Autosound ABS kick panels that are slightly modified, and bow out to accommodate a 6.5" speaker.  The kick panels come in a textured black finish to match the texture of most vehicle's stock kick panels and they can be painted to match your interior if you choose.  The speakers come pre-mounted in the kick panel, but if you do need to paint them, they can easily be removed by removing the 4 screws that hold them in.  We have found that the Kicker CS speakers are one of the best speakers on the market that actually fit in the kick panels without hitting the actual metal panel of the vehicle.  Most 6.5" speakers are too deep and require spacer rings or custom fabrication to fit.  The problem with spacer rings is that when you use them, you are pushing the front side of the speaker out to reduce the back-side depth and in doing so, it will hit the e-brake pedal of most vehicles.  It is somewhat of a catch-22 situation.  Luckily, we can offer these Kicker CS series speakers that have shallow mounting depth, the grille does not protrude too far on the front side, and they sound really good!  

The Kicker CS series, 3-way 6x9 speakers that are included with this kit have the same cone and tweeter material as the 6.5".  These rear 6x9s are popular because they can be either top or bottom mounted.  When the speakers are top mounted, the speaker grille is visible above the package tray as the speaker sits on top of the rear shelf.  Many classic car owners want to bottom mount their rear 6x9s so that they can keep them hidden and keep the vehicle looking as original as possible.  With bottom mounting 6x9 speakers, the speakers mount from below the rear package shelf in the trunk.  Typically, the speaker grille is not seen as the rear package tray is perforated and sits over the top of the rear shelf for an OE, original appearance.

Our Kicker CS series, 1964-1967 Chevelle  kick panel speaker upgrade kit is perfect for improving the sound quality in your car.  This kit offers more mid-bass than the dash kit and better acoustics due to speaker location.  If you are just powering your speakers off of the radio, this kit is about as good as it gets.  Of course, we recommend checking out our amp and speaker kits as the amp just takes your speakers and your stereo to a whole other level in terms of sound quality and clarity.  Kicker is one of the most trusted brands in car audio and for the money, this offers great value and sound quality for the money.
