I still have no idea if my dash has a tweeter or looks like yours without.
One more question: The single rear speaker is going to sound better than the smaller pair???

hi fella. The dash speakers are totally custom, they have a specific mounting system that is unique to the 986/996 so you can just drop in a replacement im afraid. You can butcher up the old speaker to reuse the mount, but you would have to basically destroy it and cut the tabs off your new speaker and hot glue it in. Yes this is why i made it. I didnt make it for a tweeter as i had no need for one, my grills dont have them so i couldnt prototype it. The speaker size is 4" to use with these adapters.
i have no idea if the 2 will be better than the 1! i couldnt make the design work with a pair in there, just not enough room so maybe the Porsche speakers are slightly smaller than the generic 3.5" speakers you can buy off the shelf. I have the singles in there, Alpines and they really add something to the car especially if your head unit can control the fade.
