Default Speaker install: Do we NEED Lucid's Adapters?

I'm looking at infinity kappa 62.5i to replace my door speakers. Do I need lucid's adapters and a honda speaker wire adapter or anything else? I don't want to make my own adapter rings, but I'm looking to see what everyone has done.

I can't say for any speaker other than what I have, but check out my webpage for some useful info to determine if yours will fit.

thanks for the help, guys. I'm going to go with the speaker kit and I'll run all new wires to an amp in my trunk.

By the way, you can make perfectly stable adapter rings using some foam board that's sandwiched between cardboard (Ace Hardware stuff), if you are only using them to space the speaker from the mounting surface. I did that with a set of Infinity speakers and haven't had any problems or heard any extraneous noises. As I recall, I needed the adapter to enable the mounting (the holes on the speaker did not line up with the ones on the door). You can cut the foam with box-cutters. Takes only a few minutes. If you decide you can't live with them, then buy a set.
