If 6.5", I think you need to cut a lil bit of the door metal to make it bigger
For 5" and your budget, I think plenty of brand and Focal/Morel can too.

What reading materials? Don't buy audio products by reading, go listen then decide. What kind of music do you listening to? What is your source of music, MP3/Radio/Bluethooth/iPod etc?

I guess reading materials is the wrong term.. I meant like source, or web links to find out more bout the products available This post has been edited by VictorKeong: Apr 3 2016, 01:04 AM

Just recommend a few brand for you to start with, which is available in Msia or at least KL/Selangor. Focal/DLS/GM/Morel

Axia front & rear doors are 6.5" in actual measurement, they just covered them with the metal buffer frame, that's all

6.5" then you would have more or better choices.
Generally the depth should be pretty standard, very little chance that it won't fit.
Add Dominations Audio into the list of brand you can go and look for.
