Agreed, I installed some Alpine Type-S components in my doors.
I did however have to cut the holes for the tweeters, since my AP1
did not have the factory tweeter location. If you do go with the
component setup, there is a perfect location on the door panel
that is great for crossover placement.

the speaker opening in the door is plenty wide enough in our cars, the biggest concern would be the mounting depth. making sure the magnet clears the window and that the speaker surround isnt making contact with the door panel.

You can KINDA cheat by using spacers so the rear of the speakers don't hit the window when you roll it down
but note that doing this also prevents you from putting the door card back on (spacer protrudes too much)

Most 6.5 speakers will fit just fine. With a little work on your part you can fit a 6.75 speaker but its not as easy. Anything larger require true custom work.
Oh and you can't have loud 'bassy' music without a sub... just saying...
If your taking the time to add an amp just get a 4 channel run the 2 front channels for the front doors and bridge the rear channels to run a sub. The difference is night and day.

I have a set of Type s as well. I was not happy with the setup completely till someone recommended to set the tweeters on the dash recess for the defroster channel. It sounds great now after some tuning. The tweeters face straight up but reflect perfectly off the windshield. Makes the sound stage feel right in front of you.

I did the 4 channel amp for 2 door speakers and 2 behind the seats speakers and bridged a sub-amp through the sum inputs. Works brilliantly.
Took a week to eliminate my horrible engine whine and figured out it was due to some faulty Monster RCA cables.
I followed your How-to wire FYI and it helped tons. Thank you darknight1999.
