When you take off the OEM speakers you will be amazed on how light and cheap they feel compared to good quality aftermarket speakers not forgetting the improvement in sound
So I could pre-prepare the mounting rings? I must say, I'm not sure I know what mounting rings are! Do they fasten to the door panel, and then you attache the speakers to them?

Are they simply perfectly round rings, using the dimensions you suggest?

What do you mean by "cut out the rear area of the speakers"?
