Just to add, the XR components are excellent -. I had a set as 6.5" for the old car - but if you really want the best then ZR are a world above; Andy does them for a good price too... :)

cost a fair bit though. not looking to spend loads as i dont know how long ill keep the car, maybe a year or so.

Go for the ZRs if you can, the midbass is awesome. Will be a worthwhile investment. You can always take them out of your car when the time comes to sell.

Fair enough, a custom baffle would be needed I think, but its do-able.

Ill chat with Andy, if its a bit involved then i may just go for the 5.25in if they are just a drop in and go.
