6X9's FTL! They don't reproduce the music as well as 6 1/2s will. So if that is not an issue cut away my friend.

In that case, I guess you have no choice. But, both sqsi and I are correct when we say that an oval speaker cannot reproduce sound as faithfully as a round speaker.

any quality car audio shop should have adapter plates to go from a 6x9 to 6.5
i would get ahold of the plates and then cut the whole to fit them securely, then use 6.5's and you are set
