they dont fit in what way mate?

sounds like a quick mdf ring would solve it though

well when i try to push em in theres something stoppin em from goin all the way so they end up sitting about 1 inch away from the mounting holes, which then in turn stops the little plastic cover goin bak on (which i will prolly have to replace now coz i hav hacked it apart)

i did notice theres a lump of plastic inside the door for the ellecy windows, is this the reason??

it might be, they sound very deep the speaker? an mdf ring would sort you there

you can get 13cm speakers that are way to deep for the recess. think its usually when they have a built in crossover on the back of the speakers.

like Scott says - mdf spacer ring should sort it out for ya mate.

i think the problem was deph and the fact that i think they must have been 13.1cm, lol!!!
