Re: Component Speakers in door
Sorry I haven't replied. I've been away for a while. At first I was concerned that the foam surrounds would touch the grill, but it hasn't been a problem at all. I don't know how much bigger you could safely go than .5" spacer. Probably about .75" I would guess. And about the Focals, man if you can afford them , GET THEM, they are incredible. Make sure to feed them though. I'm running 100 watts to each with a Kenwood Excelon KAC-X301T. Now I just have to fix that horrible rattling my doors make.

As I said, the magnet did hit the window , but after I installed the spacers the window clears just fine. Probably this week I'm going to have a custom kick panel made to house the focal mids and tweets. As it is now the left tweeter is WAY too close to my ears to create a good sound stage. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

Re: Component Speakers in door
I hope you guys are putting some sort of cup or speaker bowl behind the speakers when you mount them in the door. If you take off the factory speakers and take that plastic bowl off the back, then theres nothing protecting the speaker from the elemtns if water or debris gets in the door.<P>I was lucky enough to catch it before it got serious on my honda, but if you dont you can ruin the speaker.
