the rear door stock speakers are NOT 6 1/2"
Okay...I just got done replacing ALL the door speakers in my P5....the REAR DOOR SPEAKERS ARE NOT 6 1/2's....they are in fact 6's!!
now......a nice 6 1/2" speaker will fit with NO PROBLEM at all....but if you want to remove the little plastic splash shields from the stock speakers and put them on your replacements, as I did, they will take some trimming and cutting to make them fit if you are putting 6 1/2's in there insted of some 6's. its do able.....just takes some more work.
and if you are wondering how much room you have in the doors...see my other thead concerning the HOT POOP on P5 door rear spacing.

i didn't think that the rear doors would be different on the p5's. i put 6.5" components in my rear doors just fine. although they only have 3 mounting holes. that's odd that they'd do that.

I see what u're saying. It would be easy if I have a dremel tool and use the disc cutter on the guard.
