the Focals will fit with a 1" Spacer and shaving off the plastic ring inside your door panel.. the Oz 8" set will require you to cut the mounting hole in your door larger..which is what I had to do to fit in my Rainbows..it's a pain..

There is no best....it's different for everyone depsnding on the characteristics of your ears and perception...the easiest fit would probably be MBQ QSD's seeing as they use a small basket with neodynium magnets..but the tweeters would have to be mounted off axis fro proper performance.. Focals have a somewhat harsh tweeter no matter what you do. Oz's work best in small sealed enclosures and not free air..their still grear free air..but get better in about .15cu.ft sealed. which is how they got IASCA's first perfect score. Mounted in the doors. with the weakeness of the door panels and metal you'll never get truly great sound... But what your ears like that will fit..[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
