Although you can fit 17cm speakers in with adapters, you need to watch the depth of the speaker as not all fit.

yeah also I had to cut the door metal for mine due to the connectors hitting the metal... so needed to clear space. also had to trim the door pockets as the woofers used to catch the least deep bits... stick to 5.25", turn the bass down on them... it's shitloads less hassle and just bang a sub in boot lol

yeah i had to cut a chunk out the door to when i fitted some 17cm components. Was a job and a half but worth it in my opinion. I only paid about £40 for some JBL components from motorworld but they are times better than the originals

i had 165mm alpine type s components in the front and I had to cut the door out quite a bit. I hate doing door builds though, they take so long and need so much work to look good, and they often crack!

6.5" fit fine with autoleads adapters and a mounting depth no greater than 65mm, and a magnet no bigger than 7-8cm
