[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 7821146, member: 628688"] Metra reports 3.25" mounting depth front and rear. I'm using a 2.75" deep mid on my '02 SL2 with a 1/2" baffle ring. I've had the outer door skin off and there seemed to be plenty of additional clearance between the back of the magnet and the window track, but I didn't measure the gap. You probably will need a baffle ring to attach aftermarket mids, but it's not likely that will be required due to the mounting depth. I would go with no more than a 1/2" thick baffle, as you might have slight rubbing of the surround on the speaker grille. Pick up some duct seal or non-hardening modeling clay to seal the gap between the baffle ring and the metal of the door. [/QUOTE]
