Hi Patrick.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I was looking at making some door pods actually. Similar to those from the template provided here. http://images.wikia.com/boxster/images/b/bf/Door_Baffle_Template.pdf

My only concern is that does the door trim, which is currently flat, does that needs to be raised/ bent etc to fit the door pods and speakers in?

I guess, anybody who has attempted this before, will notice that doors with speakers are slightly raised and pushed out to fit speakers, opposed to doors without, where they're complete flat.

The concern that if this is too hard, what alternatives do I have, such as using the rear parcel shelf, and seeing how that would sound.

Thanks again for your thoughts.
