Mounting depth of the 6x9s?

Finally going to replace them and wonder what was the maximum mounting depth.

I think the CDT 6x9s should fit. Before its all torn apart wanted to be sure.

Also is everyone keeping the same speaker wiring or running different wire?

What did you change them out with? Also did you have the stock or HK system?

I changed mine out with MB quart's last week. I didn't measure, but there's quite a bit of depth.

I went the custom route and got some Peerless 6.5s from Madisound along with some Seas tweeters. Really sweet and a lot less than the more expensive route of the main car speaker makers. The 6.5s are incredibly natural sounding.
