Front speakers - replacement with Infinity Ref 6510CS

Had a few hours to spare and so drove down to Leicester's largest ICE dealer (huge place with a large workshop). Front speakers for a new Honda Civic?

"Sorry mate, dunno what goes in".

Could you remove the panel and have a look?

"No".

Went outside and bumped into a mechanic, who was happy to lend me a cross head screwdriver. 2 minutes later the panel was off and both the tweeter and woofer removed. Back to the salesman, now looking in the hole.

"Nothing will go in there mate".

Nothing at all?

"Nothing except an "Exile" - they're more than £200 and they are as thin and small as those in there now, and I'd have to order them specially".

I had walked in, wallet bulging, I took the door apart for them and still he wouldn't help me.

Back to the drawing board
