There is an angled spacer between the door skin and the speakers. Go on eBay and get speaker adapters that will allow you to mount the aftermarket speakers to that spacer. They're like $7. Using a flat baffle in the Neon will eliminate almost all the available mounting depth in the door because there is not a lot of clearance between the door skin and the window when it's rolled down. Fitting 6 3/4 is simple. They're notionally the same size as 6.5s anyway.

Buy a Chrysler, you'll find them quickly. My 98 grand has 6.75 factory.

the ebay link you posted looked like spacers what size speakers did you buy and what size does your car take. Cant you just return them to the place you bought them and get the correct size?

The speakers will fit fine. Teamnutz should be able to make you some baffles real easy if you want them.
