Took apart the door today and see that the stock speaker is a three hole triangular mount... If I were to buy new speakers should I just drill new holes? What about insulation? Thanks!

I did the same thing, but I put foam between the new speakers and the spacer and attached the new speaker with the spacer using zip ties.

There is a plastic adaptor that can be purchased at any real stereo shop made by scosche that makes that speaker a perfect fit unless you have a really deep speaker.

I bought this adaptor off ebay. I will be using it for my 6.5" PG components when they get here Monday.
