No I'm running them off a Kenwood DNX890HD. I used the stock radio for a couple of months due to not having enough time (60-72 hr. work week) to make speaker adapters and all I can say is wow what a difference in sound quality.

Plug in your make and model. I had a pair these in my old jeep Cherokee and when i swap out the speakers in the KR I plan to buy from there as well.

How did the woofers fit in the factory locations? Did you have to trim anything? I've been looking at the same speakers and have no problem mounting the tweeters just don't want to mess with the door too much.

I made adapters out of 1/2" cutting board. No clearance prob on front but back were a little tighter when reinstalling door panel, I removed the speaker screens so I wouldn't damage the speakers while puting door panels on and carefully replaced them after.
