it looks like I'll be keeping the Aveo another year and I want to change out the front speakers with some $50 Infinity reference 6.5" from Amazon. I wanted to verify the fit and figured it should be easy by just checking the audio section... it's not.
That said, perhaps someone can make a stereo sticky? I'll help...
Direct replacement options front: 4" can modify for 6.5 with 1" spacers and a drill be careful of mounting depth not > 2"
Direct replacement options rear: Hmmm 4" with adapter or 4x6 with mods
Wiring kit part number: crutchfield.com 12 bucks
Dash kit part number: crutchfield.com 15 bucks
Stock speaker wire gauge: I think 18, but don't quote me
