You won't find any anywhere except maybe the dealer, and then you just have to deal with crappy 4" speakers

I looked at a LOT of 4" speakers, and none actually mounted flush enough to clear the crank - I left the 6.5's without grilles til I found the crank spacers.

what I did was install some 6.5 in the same spot (you can only mount 2 screws) then I bought some crank spacers from Autotech (www.autotech.com - kinda pricey, but worth it for me)

Huge improvement in sound....

my full system is 6.5 - front 5.25 - rear 10" sub - under rear seat

any questions, please ask
