Can anyone tell me if the Alpine Type-R Speakers (6.5 components front, and 6x9 rear)will fit in our cars without having to hammer or make a bracket?

Alpine Type-R SPR-17S (components)
Alpine Type-R SPR-69C (6x9s)

Thanks!
 
fronts are 5.25--a mounting plate is not required, but makes it easier
Rears are 6.5, or 6x9 if you have the infinity sound system. 6.5--a mounting plate is not required, but makes it easier.
 
Yea if you have a base model RS, or any other model without the Infinity Premium sound, it may differ.

Most if not all "Eclipse" GS-T/GSX come with Infinity Premium sound, and the fronts ARE 6.5" and rears are 6x9s"

The speakers the OP posted should install just fine.

What you might find troublesome are the rear 6x9s, the mounting depth is limited in ou cars, and most higher end brand name 6x9s have huge magnets. You might possibly have to hammer down the fender well. Everybody does it.
