Those should fit with some modifications. They are slightly bigger in diameter and mounting depth compared to others, I think the depth is 2.5". I'd like someone to confirm though.

Yeah, you're definitely going to have to play around with those to get them to fit.

I tried installing these Pioneer components yesterday, and the woofer was too thick for the door without a custom mounting bracket (the door panel wouldn't fit back on after both mounting brackets were installed). The Pioneers I'm talking about have a mounting depth of somewhat over 2.5".

How can I make it fit? I don't want to cut anything. Are there any speakers that fit perfectly?

Yes they will fit. My Alpine type R's are deeper then that. One thing you will have to do is space the speaker out some. I used the factory spacer the the factory speakers sit in. If you cut out the bottom then you have a pretty good spacer. If you dont have those, most audio stores sell spacers, so just find one that will put your far enough out to clear the window but not to far as to hit the door panel.

Another factory speaker is about the only speaker that will fit "perfectly." Most Honda speakers come in this little bucket/houseing that if you want to put an aftermarket spearker in you have to cut the bottom of it our or get a spacer. If you mount straight to the metal then you'll hit the window.

Lies.

My Diamonds are mounted with no spacer and don't hit the window.

Mounting depth is 2.2" without a spacer. If you have a spacer, add the thickness of the spacer (usually 3/4" MDF) to that mounting depth (for a grand total of 2.95" depth).
