Default Image Dynamic XS69 C4 Install Question

The question is simple, has anyone installed, or know of someone who has installed the XS69's in the front lower door still location of the C4?

My installer is making me wonder about the install and I thought I had seen it done. He believes that this speaker is too deep to install in that lower position without some serious reconstructive surgery.

Please feel free to weight in and I have already asked the same in the Audio section.


Thanks in advance

Your Installer is correct.

Any speaker larger than 5 1/4", will require the stock speaker enclosure to be rebuilt. Also, the speaker depth is too, thick at 3 5/8", you need a speaker depth of no more than 2 1/2" or the speaker will extend to far out into the footwell area.
