Anyone have non factory speakers under the dash?

I removed my dash and will get one soon in the mail. Just wondering if anyone has speakers under the dash. Im thinking of bolting on some speakers under the dash now that the dash pad is off. If you have pictures please post them!

I 3.5" speakers on the corners. They also have a bass by-pass installed. They are Pioneer speakers. Work great.

Although I'd probably make a plate rather than buy on, LMC has a two-speaker deal that goes in the middle of the dash, where the single long 'n skinny one was, like I have. I originally just had an AM radio. I'll probably cut a plate and mount to 3.5s or something. I currently have no radio, so I'm in no hurry.

I have sony 3.5" speakers in the corners of my dash. Sounds pretty decent and puts some highs out with the subs behind the seat. I think I picked them up at best buy, opened item for like 40 bucks.

I have 3.5" speakers in each corner. The stock hole was 3" so I had to do a little cutting. My truck is a '81 swb but I think all the stock dash speakers were 3" excluding the center speaker.
