I put the speakers in after making some brackets, they are not amped yet, will be in a week or two when my laptop rebate comes back (Phoenix Gold Octane-R, one 4ch, and one mono...), but they sound good off the Alpine HU.
So I put the back together, it all fit, then went to put the door panels on... Ended up drilling a 2.5 inch in the door panel speaker grill because I was pressed for time (panels should be replaces anyway, they wont come clean...). I could not set the speakers back anyway, window would not close.
So, what to do about the speaker? I just want it to look good, and I cant throw on the ID grills because the door curves at the top. The tweeter is flush with the door panel, so it does not need to be ridiculously huge. For now it looks OK* but I dont like it, it bugs me.
BTW: Have you ever held one of these speakers? The magnets are HUGE!
