No reply on this? I too would like to see pix of the replacements, installation process, and if there are some tasteful replacements for the chunky-ugly door grills. Also, Magician, what would you recommend that is a step down from the audiophile DLS units?[/align][/align][/align][/align][/align]Robert[/align][/align][/align] [/align]

the closest one that i could find are forgate punch... after all the plastic crap has been taken off the magnet...but the magnet still hits the back of the enclosure.... so still looking
I was gonna tell you rockfords are tooooo deep, you could try to bump them out but then you run into problems getting the door panel back on, been there, done that. Factory grills and all

I have a 06 mustang, and a 4 channel amp under the passenger seat, with a bridged amp in a custom box with 2 12" subwolfers in the trunk. I was just asking about replacing the 4 factory speakers (doors/rear) and my local audio guy said with my setup the 8"'s in the doors were not worth the $ and to just disconnect them. That's what i plan on doing...

Thought id' throw it in there for another option.

I have the 8" Memphis Syncs in my doors using the original grille from the factory.
New to thread - pardon if I cover old ground here.

You have the Memphis Msync8 (factory web site says mount depth 3.5 inches) in the Factory location with NO modifications? What year is the car again (wondering if there are some differences between 05-07)
