Hmmm...I guess I'm convinced then.

Is it worth it to get the rear panels from Lucid?

A dremel is one way to do it. I used a "jig saw" and it worked pretty good. However, if your jig saw blade moves too fast, you'll start to melt the plastic as the cut. You can avoid any melting if you have a helper trickle water at the cutting point. If you're not handy, then the Lucid panels are for you but I decided to do it myself. Remember, measure twice, cut once.

Yeah I did like xviper and used a jig saw and I also followed his rule of measure twice and cut once. If you take your time and make sure your speaker measurements are accurate you'll have no problem.

I used a Dremel, and the "measure three times, cut twenty-seven times" method. In other words, cut the initial hole too small, and just keep enlarging it until it's right.

[B]I know exactaly what you mean by the front speakers getting muffled by your legs... very annoying.

If you put in rear speakers, although they are physically muffled by the seat, the sound seems to travel upward and around both sides of the headrest.
