hi again, i asked the seller if these speakers would be a straight swap, he said i may need to buy the adaptors that he's selling, do i don't know if he's being honest or if he's trying to make more money lol, does anybody know if they will fit (link on first post) on a 2004 punto, to replace the door speakers.
thanks again!
thanks again!
i think they will fit but not 100% sure

i think i might risk it but i'd like to be sure they'd fit, if they don't i suppose i could put them in the parcel shelf.
the speakers will go to the same "volume" as the standard speakers on the HU but sound slightly better. however when used at high volumes you will still get distortion. thats because the HU amp isnt powerful enough.
the HU might be 4 x 50 watt but thats the max power. on average it will only be 17 - 20 watts output so with say 100 watt speakers these are seriuously underpowered and will distort.
the best sound will be from an amp with the same RMS value as the rating of the speakers. this will mean the speakers are not underpowered.
hope this helps

thanks! really appreciate that mate
They should fit, the magnets look about the same size as the Infinity ones I used to have in my Punto (Pics in classifieds) and they easily fitted into the standard speaker position But the standard speaker cover will not fit over the tweeter so you'll have to leave it off (which looks a bit messy as you will see if/when you do it).

yeh i noticed that when i measured the speaker, wouldnt look great without the cover
im sure somehow you could fit the blunkput (sp? lol) over the fiat one modified with a hole for the tweeter? or buy components that be more simple and look better

yeh, im doing my research now lol thanks for the help guys
thanks for the help guys
check out www.pioneer.co.uk, there is a vehicle selector where you choose your car. If you choose punto mk1 or mk2 it gives you the correct speakers for the doors, rear deck etc... most car manufacturers are listed.
Its realy handy cos it also tells you the size! hope this is of some help.
