ugh...if you want to save money and mount 6.5"s in the door...cut or pop out the wire mesh of a old 6.5" speaker grill. if you dont have one most stereo install shops have scads of them in their garbage cans.

you can make a spacer ring out of a 6.5" grill if its the right shape, obviously for free.

the pro's in doing this is that you would save the factory speaker in case you ever needed to sell the car, and for two, the plastic on the factory speakers is increadibly thin. you would sacrifice mounting stability and sound quality to use them.

the way I looked at it, I had a set of $180 components. I spent $10 on a set of spacers. I still think it was worth it.
