Yes, I did it in my explorer.
take the 5x7 speaker, and trace around it, and where the screw holes are. Then, put a 6.5 on top of it, trace around it, and cut around the outside with a jigsaw. then cut out the middle with a jigsaw.

Use 3/4 MDF because the window track is directly behind the speaker.

Car stereo shops sell abs versions from Metra ...American International....Aamp...etc if you feel uncomfortable about making some...you should be able to pick up a pair for around $10.00 Just make sure your speakers fit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Can this be done in my grand am? My stock speakers are 4x6 and i wanna get some 5.25 components. Can i do the same thing to my opening?
The thing i would be worrying about is it clearing the door panel because its only a stock speaker grill attached to the door panel.

No problem. The Dayton ultimax is one of the better sounding sealed subs I’ve heard. I kinda want to try the 18 in my ride.
