Door speakers now done. In the end I decided on a set of Rainbow components.

2 reasons for the choice

1. They promise to be slightly sweeter treble than the focal I usually use
2. I keep meaning to try Rainbow speakers and in 20 years of messiing around with car audio never have
3. They are available in both 4" and 5" woofer sizes

Its a surprisingly small range of speakers that come with 4" these days.

For the rear doors

For the front doors

I had to make MDF adaptors for the rear, the fronts I retained the plastic bass tubes and just trimmed approx 4mm of extra space to the mounting holes

SO far very happy with the results, much improved clarity through treble/bass and midrange. Even with them still being powered from the stock headunit

next stop amplification

Always had a softspot for Genesis amps and managed to track down a Genesis Profile 5 which looks like it will be a perfect fit in the area the stock CD Changer used to sit
