Interesting. I would have thought they were at the hinge end of the doors using some map-pocket replacing enclosure. Hm, if they were used for mid/bass fill then I could see putting them there.. still strange possitioning.

Having just recently had the door panel off I think they might have done it because the window drive motor is mounted forward in the door.

Has anyone done a mount in the forward part of the door without major fabrication or multi-hundred dollar custom enclosers (and if you did how well did they work, were the door panels nearly impossible to replace) ?

Thanks for the good info guys, keep it rollin...
