I've got a set of the Rainbow 265slcs that I'm going to try to mount to the doors. Did you modify the plastic speaker enclosure or did you create a new mounting board? Any pics? I don't have any pics, but I removed the plastic baffles and used a styrofoam baffle and mounted the speaker inside that and mounted it to the door. You could try and use the plastic thing but will probably need to cut it a little to account for the bigger speaker.

I just wanted to add to the discussion on the door speakers. I installed a complete new system, Nak400, amp and dash/door speakers, and the Kenwood sub and Harvey's pnp kit. The door/dash and rears are run through an a/d/s 6 channel amp (old school I found). I can even run my mp3 player directly thru the Nak, without that modulator thing. It rocks!!! For the door speakers I recommend the Rainbow CS 265 X-Plain. These are German made speakers that have a very shallow mounting depth, the specs say 43 mm. They are a 6.5 and easily fit the space with the use of a baffle to take the place of the Nokia plastic things. They are a very quality speaker. I have the sub mounted in the passenger footwell on the side by the middle hump and covered it with black carpet. it is not uncomfortable for the passenger, which is usually a petite female, although it might be a problem if your passenger is a middle linebacker with huge legs. Otherwise it is easily removed. email me if you have any questions, thanks.
