[QUOTE="CapWKidd, post: 3541246, member: 580560"] Is it common practice to install wood rings to install larger speakers in factory locations, ie, install a 6.5" where a factory 5 1/4 was located (the ring being behind the door panel)? I ask because I just had some speakers installed, the installer said he could not fit the speakers behing the factory grill, and he had to cut/sacrafice the facotry speaker to mount the after martket speaker... so he somehow used the rim of the factory speaker to mount the after market speaker.... I can hardly imagine how this must look behind the panel, but does this sound like a hack job, or what? Reguardless of what was in the door before, isn't the normal practice to take out the factory speaker, put a wood ring on the sheet metal, attach the bigger speaker to the wood ring.... or is this not correct? Opinions please.... [/QUOTE]
