Front door speakers: typical size
The factory front speakers in most 2004 Dakotas are 6.5 inches in diameter. This size is standard across most trim levels, making it a common replacement target if upgrading your audio system.
- Diameter: 6.5 inches (165 mm)
- Mounting depth varies by trim but generally fits standard 2.5–3 inch depths
In short, plan for a 6.5-inch front-door speaker when replacing stock units.
Rear door speakers: cab-dependent sizes
The rear-door speaker size depends on whether you have Regular Cab or a cab with rear doors. Regular Cab Dakota models do not have rear doors, so there are no rear speakers. Club Cab or Quad Cab configurations typically house a smaller rear speaker, most commonly 4x6 inches, in each rear door.
- Regular Cab: no rear-door speakers
- Club Cab/Quad Cab: rear-door speakers commonly 4x6 inches
Always verify by measuring the stock speaker or removing the panel to confirm before buying replacements.
How to verify the exact size on your Dakota
To be certain of your exact sizes, remove the door or rear door panel to read the printed speaker size on the original unit, or check the service manual or OEM parts catalog for your VIN. You can also measure the opening diameter and mounting holes, or consult a local car audio shop with your vehicle’s year and cab type.
Summary
For a 2004 Dodge Dakota, the front doors most commonly use 6.5-inch speakers. Rear-door sizes are cab-dependent: Regular Cab has no rear doors, while Club Cab/Quad Cab typically use 4x6-inch rear speakers. Always verify on your vehicle by inspecting the stock speakers or consulting the manual or dealer parts catalog before purchasing replacements.
