I recommend you put this in the ICE section where you will get better answers.
Mods?

You can't go too deep as the window will catch when you wind it down. You can go up to 16.5/17cm if you get the right adaptor or make some MDF spacers. I have some Alpine speakers fitted, same as these...

The head unit does make a difference though as I wasn't that impressed with my orginal head unit but have now fitted an Alpine head unit and it sounds so much better
