All,

Also anyone know of where to get cheap head units on the web??

Cheers

Yep 6x9's will fit...Just

Takes abit of imagination though. And removing the rear shelf to do it is a pain in the 4rse.

You have two choices, get a spacer and fit the 6x9 from the interior. Or fit the speaker from in the boot. The latter is what I did. As the Speakers are flush with the shelf, they are more dicreet (and you can even use the original grills).
Although the cutouts for the original speakers are a funny shape they cover up part of the speakers. I have'nt really found this a problem, as the mids and tweets are'nt covered.
Also bear in mind that you'll get a bit more restricted space in the boot due to the size of the baskets and magnets.

BTW: I assume yours is a 4-door and should be the same as a MY97
