JBL 1964-1966 El Camino Kick Panel Speaker Upgrade Kit No A/C

Our 1964-1966 El Camino JBL kick panel speaker upgrade kit is designed to improve the sound quality in your 1964-1966 El Camino by putting 6.5" speakers up front and 6x9 speakers in the rear.  We feel that our 1964-1966 El Camino kick panel speaker upgrade kit offers better sound quality than the dash speaker option because you get 6.5" speakers up front instead of 3.5" or 4" speakers.  Also, the location of the kick panel speaker provides better acoustic sound quality than the dash speaker.  If you look at new cars today, they usually have a decent sized speaker in the door panel.  In classic cars, we can't do that due to the door panel designs and overall design of the vehicle (less plastic in classic cars).

For the kick panels in this kit, we use the Custom Autosound ABS kick panels that are slightly modified, and bow out to accommodate a 6.5" speaker.  The kick panels come in a textured black finish to match the texture of most vehicles' stock kick panels and they can be painted to match your interior if you choose.  The speakers come pre-mounted in the kick panel, but if you do need to paint them, they can easily be removed by removing the 4 screws that hold them in.  We have found that the JBL Club series speakers are one of the best speakers on the market that actually fit in the kick panels without hitting the actual metal panel of the vehicle.  The JBL Club 6.5" speakers actually have 3 ohm impedance rather than 4, so you get 50% more power out of the radio without straining the internal amplifier.  As a result, these speakers just play louder than other 4 ohm speakers.  Most 6.5" speakers are too deep and require spacer rings or custom fabrication to fit.  These speakers fit right in the standard opening and do not hit the metal quarter panel of the vehicle.

The JBL Club series, 2-way 6x9 speakers that are included with this kit have the same cone and tweeter material as the 6.5".  Like the 6.5" speakers, the rear 6x9's also are 3 ohm speakers that give you 50% more power to your speakers.  These rear 6x9s will only top mount.  If you plan on using a factory style, vented package tray and plan to mount the speakers from beneath the rear shelf, please check out the Kicker speaker upgrade kits as they can be bottom mounted.  The Reference series speakers come with a silk dome tweeter for a warm, rich, and well balanced sound.  The speaker grilles are included as well.  

Our JBL Club series, 1964-1966 El Camino kick panel speaker upgrade kit is perfect for improving the sound quality in your car.  These speakers play louder than some of the other options because they are 3 ohm speakers instead of 4.  With ohms law, that gives you 50% more power when compared to a 4 ohm speakers.  The Club series speakers from JBL sound good powered directly by the radio or with an external amplifier  Of course, we recommend checking out our amp and speaker kits as the amp just takes your speakers and your stereo to a whole other level in terms of sound quality and clarity.  JBL is a trusted name for both home and car audio and this kit offers great sound quality and value.
