I'll keep this focus specific to avoid a run in with the mods.
Has anyone here swapped out speakers in a LR 3 door hatch?? If so, i want to know what size speakers are in there without having to pull my interior apart. I want to get a little more grunt without cutting holes or anything. And no Steve, I'm not going to get an 18" sub with a fluro tube around it to go with my interior lights.: speaking of subs, does anyone have any pictures or diagrams of the ST170 audiophile sub box??. I'm getting ideas on making my own. I have to have the seats down and the boot space completely clear in order to get my drums in the car and i liked the idea of a little 10" tucked up in the corner of the boot (i'm aware the audiophile was an 8" btw :P)

Didn't cut the door trim. Stock speaker covers still fit on mine! Just what is underneath people don't know

How is the depth behind the speaker... In the BA falcon I had to space the speakers out from the door because the were deeper than the stock drivers due to a much larger magnet. Those were 5x7 too but have the tiniest magnets.

My magnets hit the window only when the window is fully down. So I don't close the door when the window is down. Thats the only worry I have

I hear you. But there will come a time in your life when you are sick of telling people what they can and can't do when they get in your car... ;-)

I don't tell. Because whenever someone gets inside the car. Their window is up. So I don't have that trouble

thin bit of foam glued to the back of the magnet could help, i'll keep that in mind.
a real thin spacer under the speaker could help too, there's gotta be some room to play with. Sorry... thinking out loud.
