Inf5x7 mounting problem (screw pattern)

THAT is my problem!!!
(and why the hell do the -parallel opposing- holes not fit ?????????)?[


and the white circle shows where the holes in the door plates are...

i tried to use a wooden adapter but the small screws i use for the second hole (speaker to adapter mount) burst the wood immediately....

drilling additional holes in the door plate won't work either i guess (holes too close)

guys...i'm really out of ideas..how can i mount it properly?

use a small dremal tool if you need to...but just elongate the current mounting holes and put screws through them. you will be fine....put a small washer on the screw if it will make you feel better.

and exactly what i feared DID happen...
when enlargening the whole with a drill bit i slid off and hit the rubber crimping of the speaker...
now it farts like an animal when it plays bass....

= my speaker set is fucked...now i have to order a fÜcking new 2pc set because they don't sell singles...

you cannot believe how berserk i am right now! UAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
KILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
