alright. the other day i bought four 6.5 inch Polk Audio db650's to replace my blown stockers. me and a friend were removing the rear panels yesterday when we realized that the factory is indeed a 6.5in, but the metal piece around the factory speaker and the bracket in the door is like a rounded square. how would i go about installing round speakers in their place? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

i had to make custom mounting brackets to make them fit. the stockers were oversized 6's that were the size of 8's. just cut a piece of wood out to adapt it or buy a pair off ebay. its not too hard.
