A little misplaced anger can go a long ways.

You bought a huge 7" mid to put in place of the puny stock 6.5, and you complain about it not fitting?

I had a 6.75" PRS mid in there before and it fit fine. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I'm not going to use the jigsaw on my door panel. Been there, done that. I'll take it slow and use a dremel.

OP: what's not fitting? basket hitting the metal? If so,cut the metal with some shear/snippers.

They're just too deep, they hit the glass before the basket hits the sheet metal.

So, I have to make a thick baffle (1" - 1.25") to make them fit, but they they will be rubbing against my door panel.

Nah mean?

good choice in using the dremel. keep your speed down. it'll get away from you if you don't work away from the spin.

edit: that even confused me. you don't want the spin going the same way as you are moving when precision cutting.

Think I'm just going to use the jigsaw.

i'd still use the dremel. just keep the speed really low until you've used the tool for a while. after you learn to use it, the dremel will become an almost essential tool.

if you're nervous about hacking at your interior with a few thousand rpm tool, outline it with duct tape.

No access to a dremel now, long story. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
