Speakers in the doors

[inel]

I'm looking at getting these 17cm speakers. Would there be space to fit them in my door trim? How easy would this be?
If not easily done, where else could those, or a similar sized, speakers be placed?

Thanks for any input :D

Edit: It's a MK2 if it makes a difference. Currently has window winders but planning of getting electric windows...

This post might be of some help, its for fitting front speakers, into a car with window winders. May be of some use!

Cheers Cassie-Nova :D I saw that thread but didn't know what size speakers they were. :?

Somebody mentioned today that they didn't think the depth of the door was deep enough to house a 17cm speaker. epo did you find that a problem at all?

Off to the scrappes this weekend probably to look for electric windows so hopefully they should not pose any problem :D

no problem at all luckly the speakers came with spacers/pods

So the speakers won't fit in without spacers? Hmm okay.

On a similar topic.... Where else can that size speaker be placed? Only places I can think of are the front doors and parcel shelf.

Cheers for the help guys :D

make your own spacers with mdf

i fitted 6x9 in my doors with no spacers just cut the trim then cut parts of the door out but dont forget aobut the strength

I think the ones i have are 5"s. Didn't need any spacers, depends on deep the magnet is i suppose, pop your door panel off and have a look! :: Could also mount a set in your rear quarters. Maybe make an MDF rear quarter panel and mount some 6x9s? Still considering on whether or not to do that!

yer iv got rear 1/4 panles with my 6x9's in its well good but the magnet gets stuck on the metal behind it, so iv got to make some more at a different angle etc.
