Default Speaker dimensions - 06 Ram QC

Hello every one. Does anybody have dimensions for the speakers/clearances for the doors? Mounting depth, mounting height, diagonal dimensions for front doors? I am replacing my door speakers and have found a pair of Kickers that fit in the rear doors, but the same series 6x9s crutchfield says do not fit because of diagonal dimension, and top mount height. Said I might be able to make it work, but I dont want to buy them and not fit. Has anyone else fit Kicker 6x9s like the DS693?

Also, what kind of sound difference am I going to lose if I put 6.5s in the front instead of 6x9s?

OEM 6x9's have a smaller frame. They are basically a 5.5x8.5. I did fit Polk Audio 6x9's with the use of spacers to make them fit.
I now have 6.5" in the doors both front and back.

The sound difference strictly depends on the quality of speaker and how well it's driven. My 6.5" component speakers sound awesome. I do have 150wrms going to each side though. HU power sucks and isn't good enough for aftermarket higher rated speakers.
Front doors fit 6.5" w/adapters and 6x9's w/spacers.
