hmm, i was wondering if i could utilise the original shelf and add some supports underneath for the speakers. If you know what i mean. I just had a look and i noticed the carpet comes up quite easy so i might just remove the carpet, cut the holes in the shelf, fit the speakers and refit the carpet ...

All finished. Not fitted the crossovers yet but they'll be hidden behind the speakers. All sprayed up and stuff now...

Not sure if the mounts are the same but you'll probably find it harder to find one for cheap. If they are the same get yourself a 1.4 16v.

Tis very true. Read somewhere that they have 102Nm of torque so i guess that would have something to do with it.

After all, performance is effected by the torque curve NOT the horsepower.

Cheers mate, The tube is 6".
It's pretty much a perfect match for the cages for 5.25" speakers. It's from B&Q and it says its 110mm but the vernier caliper says differently... Was something like £3.48 for about 40cm

Got my speakers this morning. Fitted the speaker to the pod and fitted the tweeter to the pocket. Also trimmed the top of the tube so that it can go back further and now they sit pretty much flush.

All that's left to do id fit the crossover box on each pocket and secure the tubes to the door. I ...
