BenW Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Focal Utopia 5.25 components ARE NOT A DROP IN replacement for the front speakers in an 850.BUT IMage Dynamics CD-2 Comp Minihorns will fit under the dash and you can attach them, in part, to the trim panel under the steering wheel and glove box, respectively.
