The installer machined an exact replica of the focal bracket, which is nothing elaborate... just 3 holes vs. the standard 4. He told me fabricating the bracket took about 5 minutes. He's sending me pics tomorrow, but here are a few pics of the stock speaker.

Stayed with the stock grill. The Focal grill is surprisingly too big... and I like the look of the stock grill.

The crossover is sitting in the door... there's a little niche that it sits very well in. When I get the pics from the installer tomorrow, I'll post them.
