    1995 Cutlass Supreme Convertible- Speaker size. Red/tan color combo?

    I've done it a few times, but I forget the details. You have to pull the rear seat. I don't remember for sure, but you MIGHT have to remove the screws that hold the cover on the light bar (need to lower the top to do that), removing that cover allows access to the screws that hold the top of the rear side panels (or maybe they just overlap, I forget how the panels all fit together). Working in the back seat is easier with the top down anyway (assuming you're in a garage!). There's a screw under the end of the sill cover too, but mine are broken there so I don't have to worry about it lol. Then you remove the big Torx bolt that holds the seat belt guide. I think that's it. I leave the lower seat belt retracter thingie attached to the floor, you don't have to remove that. Also you have to pull the carpet back a little, but I've cut away the rear carpet on mine due to it leaking water so much so I don't have to worry about that anymore either. Are you keeping the stock speaker grills or replacing with new? You might have to get a little creative to get the new ones to fit, or the stock ones to fit over the new speakers. Also I hope none of your screws strip out when reinstalling, or are too rusted and snap when you remove them. I've had both happen to me. You may have to drill out rivets holding the old rear speakers in place. I replaced my speakers about 5 years ago, it made a big difference in sound quality. Also this year I installed a small rectangular amp/subwoofer box in the trunk. It sits on the side, far enough forward so the top can still lower, with the opening facing towards the rear seat. With the top down it's muffled, but with the top up it thumps a little for certain types of music. Of course it's a noisy old convertible so really good sound quality which driving is difficult to achieve. Wow I ramble a lot, lol.

    That looks like it was a really clean and well cared-for car. Especially if the odometer is actual mileage.
