How in the name of god do you get to them? And what size are they?

I have a stripped out interior and don't fancy the idea of putting holes in my door cards just to have some ghey speakers in them so having them in the dash is quite convenient.

bit of a pain in the arse mate....the official line is that u have 2 remove the air vents below them, then reach in and twist them out. u certainly have 2 do that with the drivers side 1, but its easier 2 get the passenger 1 out by removing the glovebox and reaching in.
getting them back in is even worse as u have 2 get them in exactly the right place b4 twisting them back in.
i dont know whether aftermarket speakers would fit either, firstly as theyre only 3in and secondly whether they would come with the twist fitting!

I had 4inch infinity 2 way speakers in there. Just used self tappers. Had to do some fettling though.
