How tall should the speakers be on a Scion tC?

The mounting height (the gap between the front of the speaker and the door panel) for a new speaker is very shallow.

Where is the stereo system located on a Scion tC?

The Scion stereo system could be augmented by an optional factory subwoofer. If present, it’s located inside the car’s cargo area. The component is comprised of a 2-ohm, 6-3/4″ subwoofer powered by a 35-watt amp, and is integrated into a molded cavity to the right of the spare tire.

How do you mount a speaker on a scion?

Mount the speaker in the bracket, then hold it up to the door and use a pen to mark the locations for the screw holes. Set the speaker assembly aside and drill the new screw holes, again using a 1/8″ bit. Then connect the speaker wiring harness and screw the speaker into place.

What makes the Scion tC a good car?

The tC was entirely designed around five central customer-satisfaction points: price point, available options, performance & driving experience, purchase confidence, and most importantly in our case, 21st century vehicle-entertainment packaging. This little Scion excelled in all aspects, and as a result, the brand got off to a very nice start.
