I have to check again with my car in the morning, but I don't notice anything different when i opened it today with the trim cut (second picture)
I dont have a diy for that sorry, its pretty straight forward, roughy cut out the basket then you mount the spacer by countersinking 3 screws into the mdf using the 3 factory screw locations after that you line up the door panel too see how much you cut off the spacer and door panel to fit over.

I dont remember how deep the factory panel allows for without modification so you would have to take out the speaker and measure the depth.

If you didnt notice anything different the basket may of been cut out by the previous owner, this is what im talking about



that restricts the depth and width of the speaker, its alot easier to leave it inplace and just mount the new speaker to the door panel but you get better sound using a bigger driver so the extra time and effort to cut the panel is worth it imo.

I had a amp that could power most speakers you could buy

They were well powered

And the install, well... That was good. I did it myself so I would know

I've done enough installs to know what I'm doing and I spend hours just tuning my system

So no, alpines are not the best speaker for the price you pay

Polk are half the price for the same power rated ones and blow them away
Were they deadened, mounted to the door skin and service holes sealed? Woofer/tweeter on axis or off?

Thats your opinion, Ive been less than satisfied with the entry range polks ive heard. Regardless i still prefer morels over both and focals over morels.
