Subzero's Soundstream Cavalier rebuild

subzero... i am currently working on an install in my 2002 cavalier... after looking over your cavi build i figured you would know... but anyhow, without building pods like you did, could i fit a 6.5 where the stock 4X6's were and if so how much depth do i have to work with... its so hard to tell and i havent taken my panels off to measure for myself yet.

I believe it was 1 and 1/4 inches from the panel to the sheetmetal. Then after the sheetmetal you have 3/4 inches till you interfe with the window.
