I Did the same MOD without cutting the baffles, just making the inner center of the baffle a little big, you could use sand paper or a box cutter to start cutting around and finishing with sand paper. I used the same speaker! Polk 6.5 db651!!! Nice mod, less than 10 min per side. Using a rotary tool with a sand wheel start enlargign the inner of the baffle till the new speaker seats without problem. I start it with a box cutter all around, cause my rotary tool was dead with no charge! Then with a 5mm sheet foam from Michael's, fill around the speaker to keep it seal!
