i know its a bit hack but all i did was push the wire in to the stock connector then secured the wire to it self with some tape, my dads an electrician and he said it will never come out un less its pulled works for me lol
(the wire is also bent back on its self and taped)

This is where i tied the wire and connected it to the door with a tiewrap so it wouldn't get caught in the window

I have almost the same speakers in my doors, I forgot to secure the wires and the first time I rolled down the windows my speakers cut out. DOH! Anyways when you get around to doing the rear doors, the stock size is 5 1/4 but I fit 6 1/2 in there. All I had to do was to drill a hole for one of the screws and used the stock holes for the other 2. And FYI you can run down to a best buy and get the speaker harness adapters for a couple bucks. Anyways cool beans man!

i will be doing this tommorow , polk DB all 4 doors .

ya i did the backs last weekend but my 6.5's also had holes for 5.25 not sure how that worked lol my screws just fit

I ran into some trouble with mounting depth for front 6x9's at the audio shop a couple weeks back. Original plan was MTX had to upgrade last minute to diamond audio. They had the shallow mounting depth needed. Window was hitting the MTX's. Just an FYI, the guy at the shop couldn't even believe they wouldn't fit.

make spacers out of wood. everything will fit. i have used those in the past good speakers for the price

thanks really informative thread. i got 6x9s alpine type r's and component 6.5 type r's does anyone have this setup and if it fits properly cause maybe ill just do the swap myself. cause i had them amped in my old car and they sounded sick!!!

i have 4x50 amp in my hu and they sound pretty good makes my doors shake a bit

lucky!! thats the same setup i want. and yes, they will fit. ive heard that those type r's sound like poo when they arent amped though.

yeah i just bought a 720 jvc deck alpine frp 300 and type rs
