Hey GQTrol, I have mounted 6 x 9's and in the rear had few problems. They were mounted above and slightly behind the wheel arches. The LHS just fitted between the removable panel for the jack and the wheel arch.
The RHS in sorta the same position.
They both require extensive hole cutting with a jigsaw, but the RHS needed an aluminium plate pop rivited to the existing panel to mount the speaker rigidly.
My speakers were 350w with a large magnet but they did not need spacers.
