In most of the cases, it's not a straight fit when you swap the factory speaker with an after market one. You either need to customize a spacer/base with MDF, or to use a different screw hole.

Therefore, the size doesn't really matter as long as it's not too different from the factory speaker. What may give you a problem is the magnet and the depth of the basket.

Most factory speaker from Toyota has a space saving basket and magnet. There might not be sufficient space for yor new speaker unless you get the right one.

How bad is the original one to your taste? Do you have an amplifier? Is your HU the standard 2-din?

I'll use a 6" 2 way speakers and reuse the spacer basket just cut the cone and the back web. I think it should fit just fine.Any coment will be most welcomed.Will try it next weekend.
