Default 6 1/2 Components for rear?

I blew out a rear 6 1/2" coax speaker I had by the passenger seats <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> Would it be possible to replace it with a 6 1/2" component speaker as far as available space? I didn't do the install myself last time but I think I can manage a speaker swap <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I had MB Quart PKC 116's and I thought I would upgrade to Q series components for the rear. I know the woofer will fit in the same spot but what about the tweeters? Any ideas on the mounting as far as where and and how hard it would be? Thanks in advance <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

My Memphis components fit just fine, although in my 'vert I had to shim it out so the top would go down. My speakers are capable of mounting the tweeter into the woofer, making it like a coax, or you can mount it separately. You can buy or make a tweeter pod to mount the tweeter over the woofer if yours doesn't allow this. By the way, you will be able to turn it up LOUD with 4 components!

I mounted the rear seperates up towards the rear outer corner of the t-tops. They are pretty much right by your head facing towards the center of the car. The position they are in are great for the people in the rear seat and myself as well.
