Ok, I recently bought a '01 340 with the "upgraded stereo" and it turns out that all 4 of the original Clarion cockpit speakers and the 10" sub have rotten cones and need to be replaced. I have done a search / advanced search and read every post but did not find he answers to my question. I want to replace the 6.5's with a JL Audio M650-CCX-CG-WH and the sub with a JL Audio M10W5-CG-WH. The sub I'm not really concerned about but the JL Audio 6.5's specs indicate thay are are 3/4" deeper than the Clarions.
My question and hesitation is that my boat is still at the dealer just outside of Chicago and I live in St. Louis and I won't actually bring her home until April. The dealer has agreed to do the instal (over the winter) of identical CLARION speakers (free of charge) if I provide them with the speakers. I suspect that they want to simply replace the old with identical new to avoid any additional modification or instal problems.
Does anyone know if the JL audio speakers I want will fit into the existing cut out and depth? I'd really like to have a decent working stereo for our 230+ mile trip home and hope the JL Audio speakers I want will be sort of a plug and play swap. I'm not holding my breath b/c I have learned that if I dont have bad luck, I usually don't have any luck at all....
Thanks in advance for your input.
