4" mid maximum mounting depth

[addictivev8]

Hi guys,

New to mk5 ownership, before I yank the doorcards can anyone do me a favour and let me know what absolute maximum mounting depth is for the 4" mid speaker? I've heard 40mm but surely it's a little more?

Many thanks
Abdul

Didn't get a chance to pop the doorcard off today as it's been raining all day. Will report back asap unless someone else knows definitively how much depth is available.

Not entirely sure on mounting depth, but I know another member here fitted these...

Simply because the were the best fit he could find that would take a few watts, mounting depth is 33mm.

I don't know about depth, but you want the smallest magnet you can find.

I bought some 4" mid range (think they were some cheap Monacor ones), but the magnet fouls on the recess in the door skin.

The photo below may help a little:
