im pretty sure theres tons of tutorials floating around...

i want to replace the door speakers.. those are mid-ranges right? also, is there enough room for an under-the-seat sub? i hate having to keep the sub in the trunk on full blast.

I fit some 5 1/4" speakers in the front with a little, but not much modification, and some 6 1/2" speakers in the back....kind of a tight fit, but with enough messing around, it fit...my 260E doesn't have door speakers

I started doing this but everything kept breaking off. It was from Arizona and Texas originally so maybe the sun cooked the plastics. Actually, it looks like maybe you can get the speakers out without taking the door apart.
