Dear Hans,


Flush mount 6.5" MB Quarts will (both separates and coaxials) fit if-and-only-if you have electric windows and you are willing to cut about an inch of sheet metal from the door panel. I just installed these in my van and they sound awesome -- very mellow, with good bass. For those with crank windows, 5 1/4 inch MB Quarts will also fit nicely.


NOTE: MB Quarts are very expensive, top of the line speakers and pretty much require a power amp. They also fit flush with the interior panel.


Cheers,

MJS
