Has anyone who has replaced their rear speakers found any difficulty with the baskets of the 6x9 hitting the torsion bars for the boot lid?
Mine need replacing and I don't want to find the replacements are too big

MDF spacers will work. Even better is no rear speakers.

Ive got Alpine 6X9 in my rear shelf but they were professionally fitted before I bought it ( Ive got the invoice for it) and the sound is amazing!

I up rated the fronts to Rockford Fosgate Power series 5.25" components with a 400 watt RMS Rockford Fosgate 2 channel Power series amp and removed the rears!
The sound stage is now up front, right where it needs to be.
Never looked back!

See I've been experimenting. I stuck the fade all the way to the front, negating the rears. Not too shabby (no idea what speakers are up front) but I need ze bass. I may well amp it up and stick a small sub in the rear to fill out the lows.
