      I have 5.25 speakers with a 2 inch spacer. The door panel barely fits back on, but it does.
      I leased Pontiac Wave from September 2006 to August 2011.

      I have a 1 inch spacer and theres plenty of room between the speaker and the door panel and the windows go down without a problem.

      door shell is the same yes, you need to match it up with a shallow depth speaker to roll the window down.
