I tried that and the results were disappointing. There is just not enough air for them to move with the door enclosures. You just can't get good low frequencies out of the door. Go with a full range speaker run off of an aftermarket amp. If you want more base look into a amplified foot well sub.

Thanks for the info.

I can't take any footwell room as I already do not fit in the car.

I have used those all in one slim subs before in trucks with good results. I wonder if I could put one behind the seats in the storage area and get something from it. That with new amped drivers in the doors may be what I am looking for.

I modified a footwell sub from a cabriolet 996, holds a 8” driver. Dies decent job filling in the lows. The way it fits doesnt it only takes some passenger room from left not length. No one has commented it being in the way.
