Mine didn't come with cables, so I bought some speaker cable instead, and wired them all up. The only problem was my components were 17cm, so it was a bit more fun getting them to fit.

what model are they Adam, as mine are the 6500CS reference set.
I didn't have to use spacers, I just turned the speakers so the terminals were facing the armrest, and bent the terminals up out of the way.
Then I cut down the back of the door pocket with a stanley knife, just to make the grill section as thin as possible.

I never had any problems with it hitting the windows, although the magnet is a tight fit in the door!
