Default New install questions

So here's the system I purchased.

Eclipse CD4000 headunit

XR650-CSi Component speakers 6.5in
XR650-CX Coaxial speakers 6.5in
JL 300/4 amp for the speakers

(2) JL 12w3's in a prowedge box
JL 500/1 amp for the subs

My question is both sets of speakers are 6.5in, so will I have trouble getting them to fit, or will they mount okay. If they won't fit how can I make them any suggestions are appreciated.

The rears are 5.25 so the 6.5 will not normally fit, but im sure you could cut the metal in the rear to fit 6.5's or try mounting them from the front of the panel.

I say just build a mount for it out of MDF. The magnet should clear fine it's just the mounting surface that's the problem.

I personally wouldn't even mess with those rear speakers.... If you wanted rears, I'd fab them into the rear door so at least the backseat passengers can hear them...
