Default Door speakers......again.....

Does anyone know if these will fit our escos?

It might be the only way I can get my damn speakers in. My door card does look a little different than this but not a lot.

I've just fitted 6" into the original speaker mount using the autolads adapters. It is not a bad fit actually.

thanks all. With the autoleads adapters, do the speakers extend beyond the door cards or do they still fit underneath? Can you still use the standard grills? Any pics of the final install?

thanks!

They still fit under the door panel etc but they no longer sit central with the grille, it may not look too bad with dark coloured cones but my speakers have a grey cone and it looks hiddeous. I'm on the look out for a better adaptor than the autoleads one....
