If you get them you need to glue the inner part of the enclosure to the outer part as it vibrates with high bass, I used a hot glue gun - worked a treat.

Is there an easy way of running the speaker wire through the inside of the door?

Yeah, there a good solid sound, especially with having the seperate tweeters. I have the tweeters upon the top dash rail - they are OK there but need to find somewhere better.
If you get the Speaker pockets from Bolt on Bits - make sure you glue the inner part of the enclosure to the outer part as it vibrates quite a lot with high bass, I used a hot glue gun - worked a treat!

I have Alpines throughout the car I think they sound the best and also look amazing.

How have you ran the speaker wire through the door, different to Danny_California?

[Danny_California]

Those are old pics, I didnt have the balls to drill into the doors with such poor access at first. Got sick of seeing the wires though, so I drilled a hole in the door and in the door frame and ran the wire up inside the door, away from the window, and in through the door frams about half way up.
