Is there any speakers that fit optimal in the stock 914 kickpanel speaker boxes?

Autobahn has a pair of 4" x 6" 2 way that look like they might fit.

I already have "cut door panles with old 6" speakers so I was looking at placing speakers in the door panels and in the kick panels or picking up those custom kick panels that hold a larger speaker...6 " I think.

There's gotta be someone out there who has done this so I don't have to engineer the project from the ground up.

But.....he already does have 'cut up' door panels.

The door a terrible environment for speakers??? Properly prepared, and since he does already have holes cut in, doors are a PERFECT place for speakers. The bass response from the door enclosure wll blow away anything you could ever get from the kick panels, ergo the reason for the sub unit that is sold with Morphenspectra stuff.

Rob, if you really want to use 4 speakers, you should consider doing separates and using the door panels as bass enclosures and the kickpanels for mid/hi range speakers.

Anything that goes into that kick panel should be crossed at no less than 150 MHz. That's why in the Morphenspectra kit the sub enclosure goes in the center of the car interior. The worst thing I think you could do is put 4 identical speakers in there and expect it to sound good.
