Oh okay, that answers my question then. did you use the current holes for mounting or did you have to drill new ones?

how did you get the grilles back over them? I used the adapter plate that came with the speaker to mount the speaker up there and now the speakers stick out to far and the grille won't fit. also I got my fronts in tonight but didn't try to put the door panel on yet. will I have any problem with that?

Just to clarify... are we talking about the DB651 or the DB651s? "s" designates shallow mount.

Ran across a 651 non-shallow-mount pair for cheap, wondering if they'll fit in the doors.
