Hey Carl,

The db650's fit in mine behind the harness bar, but without the grill. No drilling was needed, though a tiny bit of hole extension on the mounting screws might've made it a touch easier. There are some who have squeezed the grilles in, but I don't like the look of the grill so left it off. The rear oem is 5.25" but the polk 6.5 fortunately has nearly identical mounting hole spacing.

The Exige' I believe has a speaker pod that mounts the speaker a bit lower, so it should fit without a problem. I recall seeing a post where someone put them in without issue.

The db400's are drop-ins for a 4" replacement, and I'm using the oem grills on those.

Mark
