95 e320....need speaker sizes...again
went to the stereo store today and checked out the next phase of my porject. STILL waiting for the new springs from TWS to come in 
so i figured i'd blow off some steam and check out the sounds. got quoted up for alpine headunit, ipod adapter, alpine components up front, 5.25 rears, alpine 4 channel amp, all wires, and top of the line installation and it came out to be $1800 with tax, materials, and labor. that's in addition to the $250 im picking up by buddy's 2 infinity perfect 12's for. that's about $500 more than i wanted to spend but the labor is where u get hit. so im thinking, why not just have the headunit and amp professionally installed and just do drop in replacements for the interior speakers. thinkin boston acoustic or alpine 4" fronts in the dash and 5.25" rear decks. now, the question is and i cant seem to find an answer through the search. how big are the speakers in the door panels of a '95 e320 SEDAN. i know you coupe/cab guys have chimed in but i need to know what i can throw in those door pockets. i figured this way i can save on component speakers and just coaxial and do the labor myself, easy as undoing and attaching wires. thanks

i have a 93' sedan and i believe that it stock it is a 6 inch speaker in the door. my audio guy told me that whatever goes in has to be a cutom instalation, due to the fact that the origainal mercedes encloser can not be reused. i could be wrong. but i would like to some pictures of peoples door instalations with out the door panels on
