[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 7157520, member: 628688"] If you don't care about putting your stock speakers back in this will work. Yes. An alternative is to buy or make an adapter spacer that lets you install these speakers without any cutting of the sheet metal. You will still have to modify the door panel for extra clearance based on what you said. Not necessarily. You need to have an airtight fit but the speaker does not need to be sitting flush on the metal. If there is another material sandwiched between the speaker and door, like the aforementioned adapter plate, that would suffice. I have seen non-hardening modeling clay used to fill a gap but I have not personally tried it. It wouldn't hurt to try it but it's not ideal. [/QUOTE]
