At least this way you spend the least money and you can always add more from there.
Which leads me to my question, has anyone swapped out the door speakers with minimal fabricating? What size should I be looking for?

I did what this guy suggested, and it worked great. The speakers I got plugged right into the existing connectors. I think they were Pioneer.

Found 6.5 speakers that fit door without mods
I just wanted to let you guys know I found out that the Pioneer TS-A1675R coaxial speakers will fit the OEM door bezel that houses the door speakers. I'm not sure if this is common in 6.5 speakers or not, but these speakers have 5.25 sized mounting holes drilled in the ring in addition to the 6.5 mounts. I put them in (I have an alpine amp with no crossover driving them) and it was a very big improvement. I did not have to make a new mounting bezel or modify my existing bezel at all. The speakers were on sale at best buy for $59 for the pair but can be found online for $40 for the set. It's crazy how so little cost can be involved with a big improvement.
