I just replaced all four of original Clarion 6.5" speakers in the cockpit. They were junk, so I got 2 sets of Alpines. 3 out of the 4 were a perfect fit, but one on the port side won't go all of the way in. The depth of the new Alpine is too big by about an inch.
Should I shim it by intalling a 1" circle made of wood(?) to bridge the gap, or should I try to get 1 other speaker that is the right depth?
I already threw away the boxes, so returning the Alpines are not an option.
Thanks.
