has anyone put speakers in the side paneling by the back seats?

Well Aplines are ok, the reference series I know little about. I personally went with Memphis Audio M Class speakers, both the 6.5in and 6x9s. Your factory speaker locations will always look stock given how they are hidden behind the door panels and rear deck cover, so no worries on messing that up :)

But you are right, you want more high end (trebble) and mid range bass for the fronts and leave the bass in the back. That way you get a nice all around sound from them.

You will probably have to do a little dremeling of the speaker holder, if they are anything like the 97-03 GPs. There will be a plastic holder that contains the factory 5in speaker. You will need to carefully dremel it out to mate with the larger 6.5in speaker, but its not a hard task to pull off and still keep things custom :)

So you dremeled the stock mounts and got 6.5's to fit ? If so do you have any pics and did you have to take the stock grills off the door panels ? My front speakers are blown again and am needing to replace them Again! FTL! DON'T BUY AUDIOBAHN they are CRAP!

Going to be putting 8's in there... Gotta fit somehow. ;)

isn't it 1watt/1meter @ 2.81v?

I'm trying to learn speaker specs now. I know some manufacturer's sneak in 2watts@1meter.

At 8 Ohms yes, at four Ohms 2.81 V is two watts. V=IR which is voltage = current times resistance. Solve for I and multiply by V to get watts (Power=IV). And then you'll see that the nominal impedance makes a big difference in the actual sensitivity and # of ways you can wire the driver up to your amp(s).

Your're gonna put 8's in the front ? Sweet! Show pics on how you do it. I bet that will sound really good! I wonder if you will have to redo your door panels though ?
