The install was easy. I pulled out the boxes. Ran the new wiring thru the factory grommet. Broke off all unnecessary tabs on the factory box and Polk adapter plates. Put a bead of rtv black between the adapter and box and screwed them together. Filled the box w/polyfil. Installed speakers.

For the tweeters I glued the Polk pod into the factory one. I like how it looks and my dremel crapped out, so I didn't want to wait to fab the holes to fit.

The sound is awesome, but you can still tell the roll bar speakers are restricted, compared to front. Being I still have factory deck. But very happy with it.
