It's more of a question of 'how much pain' for me. What's involved in installing 6.5's? Just how much 'pain' are we talking about.

I've cut holes in the doors and rear deck of my E46M3. The doors were a lot easier than the rear deck. I wouldn't want to do the rear deck again for two HAT Legatia 8" speakers. That was miserable work.
