The Dodge Stealth rear side panel accommodates a 6x9 inch speaker size across all model years covered. Full-range units are the compatible audio system types for the location. These specifications cover the years 1991 to 1996.
A single driver that reproduces bass through treble without a separate crossover network. It is the simplest replacement option and is common in factory audio systems.
Additional Notes
The rear side panel location in the Dodge Stealth refers to the speaker enclosures integrated into the side panel trim behind the passenger compartment, a common placement in sports coupe body styles where dedicated rear door speaker locations are absent.
A 6x9 inch oval speaker format is the specified fit for the rear side panel position across all listed model years of the Dodge Stealth.
The 6x9 inch oval dimensions provide a larger cone surface area than round mid-range alternatives, which increases low-frequency displacement capability - a relevant acoustic property for a rear cabin location that is typically expected to contribute bass and lower-midrange body to the overall soundstage.
The elongated oval shape of a 6x9 inch driver allows the speaker to occupy a mounting cavity that is wider in one axis than the other, which suits panel-integrated locations where vertical depth or horizontal width may be constrained by the vehicle's body structure.
Mounting depth is a critical factor in rear side panel installations, as the cavity behind the trim panel in the Dodge Stealth 1991-1996 rear side panel location must accommodate the basket depth of a 6x9 inch driver without interference from structural members or the wheel well area.
Full-range is the only compatible speaker type listed for the Dodge Stealth rear side panel location, meaning the specified driver is designed to reproduce low, mid, and high frequencies from a single cone and voice coil assembly.
A full-range driver in a rear side panel location handles the entire audible spectrum from that position, typically covering roughly 60 Hz to 20 kHz, though the low-frequency extension of a given full-range unit depends on its individual design parameters.
Because the rear side panel position places speakers behind and to the sides of the listening position, full-range drivers at that location contribute indirect and ambient sound characteristics to the rear portion of the acoustic environment inside the cabin.
The rear side panel mounting surface is generally angled or contoured to follow the body line of the vehicle, which affects both the baffle alignment of the speaker and the directional projection of high-frequency content from the full-range cone.
A 6x9 inch full-range driver relies on cone geometry and sometimes a whizzer cone or dustcap design to extend high-frequency response, since a single large cone naturally rolls off treble output at angles away from the direct axis - a characteristic relevant to the off-axis listening geometry common in rear side panel placements.
