98 accord. front speaker installation
 
im going to take out the stock and put in apline type r 6 1/2 on the two front doors. i know the window may interfere. how do i avoid the speakers not to collide with the window. I also would like to know where i can buy (online) the plastic case or plate the goes on the door before i put the speaker. size 6 1/2 ofcourse

I just made MDF Spacer rings to space my speakers out a bit. I think eBay even sells pre-made MDF spacers.

You should check the mounting depth of the front doors. I THINK http://crutchfield.com might have that information.

Like what totalimmortal said...you can make your own MDF spacers if needed.

i bought it in 05. i used to have it on my 97 accord, and the window did scrape a bit but not a lot. and the stock speaker for 98 accord is less wider than the alpine. i think it will touch but not sure if it will not allow my window to go down all the way.
