Not to move in on Wankel's thread but is it absolutely necessary to mount the component systems in the doors? Say, for instance, you buy a high end set up (6.5 and 1" tweeter) and mount them in the rear stock cut outs and leave the kick plate speakers in place -would this sound decent or is the sound that much better mounting them in the doors rather than in stock locations. The reason I ask is I would really hate to cut holes in my door panels. Sorry for budding in Wankel

I used the stock mounting locations for new speakers for the MP70, and it sounds fine without using the doorskin / window slot as the sounding board or cutting up the door panels

AJC13B - I still have dibs on those from that thread a while ago in case you decide to sell those, remember? lol

Actually, how much did those cost you, and could you get another set just like those for your american pal here? Thats EXACTLY what I want

Thats just what I wanted to hear . Theyre the right colors and everything . Theyre even for the right intereior design, I LOVE those things. I wish I could afford to have someone make me something like that, lol.

Does MLC produce those, or was that a 'one off'?
