FWIW, the Polk Audio Momo speakers come with these brackets already in the box. Makes install a breeze and they won't warp since they're plastic.

You will loose a 1/4" of mounting depth. If your speakers don't need the extra depth to clear the window when it's in the down position then the 1/2" should be fine.

does anyone know the pros/cons of creating spacers vs modifying the stock baskets? which, if either, is a better solution
