Ever see Pinky and The Brain? "Pinky, are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "I think so, Brain, but where are we going to get a utility knife, a coat hanger, and duct tape at this time of night?"

*NARF*

Indeed! Frighteningly similar in many respects.

At this point, the current plan is to go with the low clearence screw idea. With the factory brackets and pocket. If all goes well, things should be completed today. At least for this round...

I am still wondering if we can get coax's in at the rear. When installing the speakers, there looked like there was enough clearance for a small coax. That would make it a lot easier than going for components (and finding a spot to locate them) back there.

As to the front, component tweeters in dash would be better. That is a mission for a later date, though.
