yep - shoulda paid the $50, but I'm hardheaded. I didn't break anything tho - got 'em in and they sound great. If I had to do it again, I woulda cut the oem's out from underneath and bolted the new ones up.
well, at least now I know how the seats/panels come off.
thanks dudes !!!

dude, just spend the $40-50 to have the speakers installed @ a stereo shop, that way you aren't shelling out the money if you break those pannels. I've talked to a few friends who installed their 6X9's by themselves and they royally ****ed up the panels, cracking them in several places. I personally destroyed the stock speakers getting them out through the trunk. I didn't care, the stock spkrs sucked. Then i just bolted the new speakers to the underside of the rear deck.
