Without trimming metal on the door panel (and thereby weakening the plastic door panel - where the driver mounts), it's not possible to get these drivers in the door. The magnet is larger then the physical opening in the door
Then you decided to try to put words in my mouth by saying the following

No where did I use the words structural integrity, nor did I make any reference to the strength of the door, but the door panel.... Nor did I say that cutting the rain guard would have this affect.
If you trim back enough metal to get the magnet to clear comfortably, you remove one section where the plastic area of the door panel comes in contact with the metal section of the door...this portion of the door panel is weak enough as is (plastic is not what I would call a suitable mounting material for drivers). Cutting away that metal will only reduce the support that the door provides for that weaker section of plastic....hence making the door panel weaker.....you said ti yourself...it's plastic...therefore it needs all the help it can get!!!!
Try reading the post again (and again if you have to) before you try to put words in my mouth. Continuing these childish attacks that only weaken your already flaky credibility....
I'm all for logical debates and discussions, but you are really taking this thread in another direction. One that is not tolerated around here...maybe this is how civicland.com works, but not this board.
I'm still waiting for some photos from you guys....
