Anyone do this before? How much depth do I have in the doors before speakers hit the windows?

What do you mean by "all around?" They should fit easily into the doors, but 5x7 is stock for the back. Although I have heard of people squeezing in 6x9s.

6 1/2" for the front doors (or 5 1/4" with adapter)
3 1/2" for the dash
6"x8" for the rear package tray (coupe) or rear quarter panels (hatchback)
(or 5"x7" with adapter)
not sure about convertible rear

I'ts pretty tight in there. I ended up going with 5 1/4" I believe. They are Boston Acoustic. Even they didn't clear the stock speaker grills, so I made some custom billet ones to give me the extra 1/4" I needed.

YMMV, but for me, Pioneer 6.5" 2-ways fit under the stock grills. 3- and 4-ways from Pioneer fit also, but you're not likely to need that many watts unless youre running an amp separate from your head unit.
