You'll need spacers for any good aftermarket speakers as far as I know.

I can't recall if the stock ones are 6" or 61/2".

The spacers I've used most recently were to fit MB Quart 6 1/2" splits, spacers needed to be 24mm thick for window clearance (they still fit behind the factory speaker covers in the door trim).

I put in some 6.5 inch Eclipse speakers in the front doors of my GC8. Dropped straight in without any modification at all.
