Seconded.
This is the absolute best install of them Ive seen yet.
Simply because its highly important to keep the front wave separate from the rear wave.
Thats why you will notice the stock speakers have a foam to seal the speakers to the panel...

With mids in front its best to aim the drives at the passengers head and vice versa.
The aiming of our mids in our cars was pretty well done. The tweeter aiming was horrible...
Pop a panel off and give it some thought. I would try to do something similar unless you can fiberglass good (I cant! lol).

or cut the 4x6 grill out, and mount them on the plastic right there...
i opted for the fiberglass, since it gives it a better overall shape for the mount... BUT, you run into serious space restrictions doing it that way. (rubbing the dash)
