Get Big! (door speakers)
As some of you may be aware, the design philosophy behind the Corvette and the GT86 are similar. Light-weight sports car with enough creature comfort not to offend the average consumer.
Well... the Corvette has an optional fancy pants Bose sound system. I got curious what Bose chose to include for the Stingray. Here's the layout:  Here are the speakers: 1 x 3" (80 mm) midrange (dash center)  2 x 1" (25 mm) tweeters (dash left & right)  2 x 3" (80 mm) midranges (upper door) 2 x 10" (255 mm) woofers (lower door)  2 x 5.25" (130 mm) woofers (rear fill)  1 x 8" subwoofer in a 14L bassbox

My point being... has anyone considering fitting gigantic woofers in our side doors?
The 10" Bose units seem like overkill, but that's a fine sounding factory sound system. What would be required to fit a low-profile 8" or 10" woofer in our doors? It looks like we have plenty of space:

You might be better served to put a low profile 8 or 10 in the back seat quarter panel. The doors would require a fair amount of modification to fit it in there, and I don't think you could find a low profile woofer that would clear the windows.
