Does anyone know what size the speakers are in the W208 CLK Cabriolet?

I just realised that fitting a sub is gonna be impossible so want to get some top quality speakers for the doors, but need the sizes!

Cheers

why is it impossible? there is a nice big slot for it behind the rear seat back.

Speaker sizes are 6.5" at the front of the door, with 1" tweeters behind the mirros. The speakers for the rear are 4".

May be a Phase Linear flat sub, one of the Aliante's?

Information I have already gleaned from these forums in anticipation of doing the same sort of thing -

Front mid base speakers are 17cm in diameter apparently 'audioleads' will do an adapter ring

Rear door speaker is 10cm

Tweeters are 25cm in diameter (seal them with silicone)

I can't remember why I wrote 'Kenwood Dual Mags door speakers' in my little book but obviously someone, somewhere has recommended them.
