Default Door Speakers?

Will 6X9 speakers fit in the front doors of a 2001 2500?

Yes 6x9s fit, just make sure you get a spacer ring or a shallow mount speaker so the window won't contact the magnet.

Yup this is quite a nice feature they put on their website. I have bought every single radio/speaker/amp/sub I have owned from these guys and they are awesome! I would never deal with anyone else.

Most speakers now a days come with them but always check before you purchase. And yes you could use something in place of a spacer ring.
