Definately, thats why I keep mine in the factory positions. I dont bother with subs no more as its not worth the hastle> all it does is kill ya alternator, make everything rattle n tempt the W kers to nick it. In fact I dont even have a rear shelf so they can see there is no point in breaking in :).

If only stopping the water breaking in was so easy, damn sound proofing is still wet  :(

Yeah I heard that, recently fixed the passengers side with a heavy duty bin liner. I think it is now coming in thru the rear window rubbers !! I have hopefully sorted with some trusty silcone rubber front halfords, Have taken the sound proofing out and is currently drying in my bathroom. Will have to test it at the weekend :).

Does anyone know what mounting depth the door speakers can go to?

I'm looking at some JL's that have a mounting depth of 2.81"

I'm off to the states on the 29th and will buy the JL's there, so if anyone can confirm these will fit it would be great!
