and how did you mount the 5 1/4? I am at that step now. I ordered the 6.5, carved up the tweeters, mounted the x-overs, and realized the subs were a huge no-go. ordered the 5 1/4 and am trying to figure the best way to mount bass to the dash.
I originally mounted the 5.25" I bought a small square sheet of ABS. I trimmed out the outline of the stock speakers and then cut out the needed area inside that for the 5.25" I got the ABS from a local car audio place for $10. You can order various sizes and thicknesses of ABS from various sources on the web. Just google it. That's what I did anyways.

It worked well. Since then , I have up sized to the 6.5" One of the 5.25" woofers had developed a slight rattle. I ran then very hard. The place I bought them will warranty them, but I didn't want to wait, so I ordered the 6.5".

If you go the ABS route, I'd recommend getting a thickness of about or a 1/4" thick. The 5.25" will bottom out as well without a little spacing.
