To some this might seem mad..

I've installed some new rear speakers on my car. I had to cut the holes in the rear panels. Looking at them now, it looks as if i've installed one a bit higher than the other (about half a cm) - i'm pretty OCD and want everything to be perfect. Other than replacing an entire panel to recut and match it, are there any other easy solutions to make both speakers the same height? How do universal speaker adapters work?!

Thanks.

Yes, you are mad!

Try finding oversized speaker grills, so that you can mount one higher/lower than the other.

You numpty! laugh

Installing speakers on door cards/panels will provide horrible results.

A speaker needs to be installed onto a baffle that is solid and will not move when the speaker plays for best performance.

The fact that they are placed 1 or 2 cm above each other is the last of your worries.
