why not worry about the wattage? If i get too much wattage on my speakers, won't it put too much of a strain on my head unit? thats what the bestbuy guy told me, but then two other people told me it won't hurt it, it just wont play at full potential


Also, does anyone know if this model comes with an amp? or what the stock output of the head unit is? It's a 1999 celica GT 6 speaker setup with no pocket under the stereo.

I can't find manufacturer specifications anywhere!

I'm trying to choose a new speaker and that information would be really valuable.

yeah you're right, it is a 6.5" speaker inside a 8" case thing.

anyone know where an adapter can be bought to make an aftermarket 6.5" speaker fit?
or should i bust out the plywood?

thanks a lot guys

sorry but what is a tweeter?

i took the door off and took the speaker out. Then i put a current tester through it and it measured no resistance, so im guessing it's the speaker.

what is the HU?

it also seems to be an 8 inch speaker. the guys all say it should be 6.5" but its also toyota branded on the back, leading me to believe it came stock.

well, should i replace the one speaker? or buy two new ones?
also, would there be any relatively inexpensive ones that would let me play more Bass? i love my EDM

thank you for the answers guys, this is a really helpfull community.

So I recently bought a 1999 Celica GT off of CL in Los angeles. After replacing the oil pump and valve cover gaskets, it runs great. The seats are a little beat up and the trunk rattles, but all in all pretty good.

The only real issue is that the front left speaker does not work. It's all stock from what I can see. Also the button console on that door is really shaky. it looks like someone took it off and didnt know how to put it back on.

any ideas on fixing or replacing the speaker? Pictures of it are on my profile. It looks fine cosmetically. Wiring or dead speaker? Anyone else have an issue like this before?

thanks!
