So, a quick trim of the speaker plate. Original on the left, trimmed on the right.

Now the speaker fits between the studs, and can sit flush on the inside of the grill.

So now the speaker and the pod mount to the same side of the board. There is still a bit of space between the grill and the speaker.

With the tweeter down, the mid range magnet almost aligns with the body panel hole.

The paper template shows where the magnet projects, near the edge of the body hole.

Just a quick bit of hammer work to ease the lower edge of the hole into the body cavity.

Everything fits, and the speaker magnet does not come close to contact with the body panel. Once I get all the necessary hardware and a few more components, I can mount the speakers for real.

I counter-sunk the holes on the front of the speaker.

Today, I played with the frunk floor, starting with what came in my car. This looks essentially black.

First, I undid some PO staples along the rear edge. This exposed a flap of perlon, and the original(?) gray color.

After I removed all the perlon, I exposed the plywood, that I think is OE.

The OE plywood fits almost precisely sitting on the floor, without a spare tire in place. Of course, this means a very sloppy fit when the plywood sits on top of a spare.
