As said mate they will come in a box and it should have a template, if it doesn't you can make your own with some paper, then its a case of cutting 2 holes in your parcel shelf and screwing them in.

You can use the wires from you back speakers and run them off them wires, or if you want them abit louder you could get an amp and uprated headunit and run them that way. For advice on headunits/amps/wiring/subs/other ICE queries see the ICE section

use a jigsaw and a drill to cut the holes in the shelf, then i would recommend using nuts, bolts and washers insead of screws to hold them in place.

a lot of people on here don't like 6 x 9's but tbh mate i think they are pretty damn good (for the price) unless you are using them with a HUUUGE sub in the boot, personally i prefer to have mine amped up instead of running through the head unit too as the sound quality is much better.

Also, it would be worth tinting your rear window as 6x9's are a temptation to car theifs.

definitly tint the back window you dont know what could happen to your sound system ive heard it happen to some lad in my area he had spent 5k on a new kit and it was all gone the following morning because they could see it all.

get a stealth parcel shelf so the speakers wont be on show if you cant do that jsut making some holes to get the magnet through with a screwdriver should be fine as you wont see them anyway.

am not a fan of them myself but they do get loud if your the sort who likes tht with the windows down.
