6 1/2s in my doors

I have a 1995 oldsmobile cutlass ciera, its the one with the 3.5 dash speakers not the door speakers, however it has like a little storage bin protruding from the door about 2 inches. I was wondering If I could cut some of it out and build a box on to it to house a 6 1/2 inch midbass/midrange on each side or would it look like total shit? Would I be better off making a box and just laying the midbass/midrange on the floor in the box with the grill over it?, Id probably put the tweeters on the dash where the 3.5s are now. Gimme some opinions and or options if you know of any.

You could build an enclosure for them in the doors like that, but then you get into fiberglassing, and if you've never done it before, be in for a real treat (hint: pain the ass).

I was thinking the same thing in my jimmy...but figured it would be too much of a p.i.t.a to do. if your up to a challenge w/ glass, then go for it and let me kno how it turns out

Acetone is a solvent if your unaware.
It works really good on Fiberglass. If you get it on your hands...lol
It takes it right off
