Just to actually add something to this discussion, I followed urban_legend's option of cutting the old speakers out of the basket and just keeping the mounting ring. I took a pair of tin snips and trimmed the Kappa's mounting tabs back so they just slide into the ring. This allowed them to be held in place when the ring was put back on the speaker grill. I tightened them down and shook the crap out of them. They didn't move at all, so I think they should stay tight in the mount.

Sorry no pictures, I was just excited to get them in.
