6.5" comps in a Mk2 Ph1

[MrStabby]

So has anyone been able to fit 6.5" components in the front of a Mk2 Ph1?? Just wondering if I got fit them in the standard pods with a bit of modifying

 

[The Big Yin]

Needs a bit of cutting but has been done

 

[Djw John]

Yeah just needs some cutting and then probably a mdf spacer to bring the speaker away from the window.

 

[MrStabby]

So anyone done this, pics would be cool?

 

[Djw John]

A few folk have done it but cant think who! I could show you pics of how I cut mine away and used a baffle for my 13cms as a rough guide if you want.

 

[MrStabby]

Yeah could ya John! Car's in the garage being repaired atm so can't figure anything out.

 

[Djw John]

Yeah will dig out the pic later on when i have more time mate

 

[hydeyho]

I've done this, no cutting was required just some rather thick mdf spacers!!!

 

[MrStabby]

Yeah the speaker section will be exactly the same Steven.

Heres the only pic I cna find, its on the driver side but is only 13cm but it wouldnt be much more work to fit 16cm. The reason I cut mine was so that they could be bolted into the door more securely

I'll try and get some when I go out later.

Still havent finished the install :clown: Too busy doing my final year project for uni. Will have a nice hassle free summer so should hopefully get done then.
