Nissan Maxima speaker upgrade

The Maxima is a sporty sedan with a quiet cabin, so the speakers make a big difference. Maximas through 2008 use 6.5-inch front door speakers, and 2009 and newer move to 6x9s. We have verified sizes for 6 of 6 year ranges or trims in our table; anything not verified says "Confirm fit at the shop".
