New to this forum and very pleased with my first Boxster - 2000 2.5 I have some polks which I would REALLY like to try and fit to the dash (maybe I should find second hand dash grills....) Unfortunately my car is the basic model with only dash speakers and CD changer under the bonnet. I have been in touch with 9xx who will do the dash upgrade, but thought my brand new polks (DB525) would be a better bet if I can modify them to fit under the factory grills...they may be deeper than 60mm! Has anyone tried this upgrade to 5.25" in the dash? Also on another note, does anyone happen to know the exact spec of Harvey Peck PNP 3.5" speakers in his rear speaker kit - if I opt for these as well, then I would like to try and match his speakers with the same 4" in the dash if my polk route is unsuccessful! Failing that, I would go for Infnity ref or kappa 4" in the dash and matching 3.5" x 2 infinity in the PNP kit. Many thanks, hope for some advice in this case!

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I think you will have problems with the depth...I went with the infinity kappas and they fit fine. They will also fit in the OEM speaker basket with some minor modifications.
