1995 993 C4 - replacement speakers
Hi folks - I have the stock speakers in my recently purchased 1995 993 C4 and want to replace them with a modern set that does not require any cutting, changes to the stock look. Is that possible? Is there an option out there to do that?
Also, any feedback on what stereo to replace the stock cassette player with would also be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance and apologies if this is not the right place to add this post.

in my 98 c2s, stock speakers were all deteriorated and buzzing/not working properly. I had them all replaced with focal k2 components. they all fit in the existing hi fi locations.

@Narbeh991, could you share exactly what the Focal units were? I keep hearing descrepensies, it good to know you successfully replaced the old speakers without any mods. I too have the HiFi option.

I have accomplished such in my 1988 911 Coupe and with my 1996 993 C4S (hi-fi opt) using Focal PolyKevlar Drivers and Crossovers model# 165 KR. Suggest you contact Rod at CarAudioInnovations.com. Rod is the guy for Porsche's.

What is the hifi option code for non-S cars? Quick search didn’t reveal it instantly for my short attention span!
Same Code for all 993 its #490.

looks good. We hid the crossovers behind the rear seats in my install. Came out very clean. And we used all factory mounts and screens. Looks oem + how it should be.

If you wanted to keep OEM speakers..........You can "re-cone" your OEM speakers for about $25-50 each. I did 4 of them in my cab when they deteriorated motivated by fact that OEM speakers went up in price from originally approx. $ 28 each to over $200 each......I searched the web in my area for audio speaker repair shops and was able to locate several......

Here are two photographs that I had of the interior and the amp install. Can furnish more if needed including the subs. From a sonic standpoint, I purposely eliminated the rear deck speakers and only use the door speakers and two subs. This is both my 911's and they sound great. In fact, certain material will image with vocals coming from just under the rear view mirror.
