<x-flowed>Hi,

I want to mount speakers flush on door pannels or side pannels. What are 
the best locations? I need room behind the pannel for the speaker. I would 
rather not cut metal.  I can cut it easy enough. I just dont like doing non- 
reversible modifications to nice old cars. I don't mind cutting interior 
pannels because mine are only in fair condition at best. Is there space 
behind the ash trays in the rear seat? I was thinking of removing the 
ashtrays and putting them there. Now that I've talked about not cutting 
metal - Has anyone tryed putting them under the rear seats facing forward? 
Thanks for your comments
