How do I add door speakers without factory door fitment

[Daryl80]

Hi Guys,

Posted this on another forum, but somewhat new here, and seek your expertise.

But basically, I bought 3 ways, but no idea how to fit them into the door.

Anyway, I write with a 97 986 Boxster, that had the standard, low end stereo system. (4 inch paper speakers, no tweeter, no amp.... thats it!)

Unsatisfied with the sound, I've gone ahead and done the following.
Changed the HU to a nice Nakamichi deck
Installed a 3 channel Audison amp
Bought a Rainbow, 3-way component speakers. (1 inch tweet, 4 inch mid, and 6.5inch woofer)

So I've gone ahead and installed everything but the 6.5 woofer.

The reason being, my car was never designed for door speakers, and reading some old posts, there is concern over clearance for windows.

So, can I ask, how difficult is it to add door speakers to a door not designed for them (i.e, they are completely flat)

I've got a set of door speakers from eBay and am hoping to use those also.

Having done some reading, I've downloaded Andy Morris' pdf file. Great info, so I also have the baffle design to fit 6.5inch speakers. I just need to know what mods I need to do to the door trim.

One last thing, I'm actually located in Melbourne, Australia. Parts, such as replacing doors aren't really a cheap option here, so much prefer to fabricate something. Better yet, employ the services of a professional locally to do it for me!

I also was thinking, if it's too hard to make door pods, how about putting something in the back rear shelf. Similar to the "rear shelf speaker kit" but have the speakers firing up. (Dremel something)

But then I was thinking how would it sound with the top down? Would the roof cover it, and would it sound any good? How about when compared to a door pod?

Appreciate, and advice people can offer.

Cheers!
