Right then, a short answer: Yes. Definitely.

However; you need to sort out the wires to make them function properly. Also, they'll stick out a mile. I.e. they sit proud of the boot lid.

The latter can be fixed by sanding down the rear of the units, trying them on to see where they need sanding, sand/grind some more, trying them on, etc ad infinitum.

It takes some time, but you can make them sit perfectly. Mines aren't 100% but I lost motivation after a few hours.

looks good tho! but aftermarket 1s for 6n will be less hassle..
