Aftermarket door speaker max depth?
What's the maximum mounting depth a speaker can have *with* a spacer that will fit in the door of the Z?
Will a speaker with a 2 5/8" mounting depth fit with a spacer?
I'm assuming the rear speakers are ok as well with this mounting depth and *no* spacer....correct?

There is not much room at all. I managed to get Dynaudios in there by ripping apart the stock speaker and using it as a mount. That gives a lot of clearance, I'd say maybe 3-4 inches.
I didnt' feel bad about ripping the speaker apart since they probably only cost $30 and I'd just replace it with a crappy stock speaker when I return the car.
tip - use a piece of dynamat on top of the ridge to get a good seal. Also, you have to get lucky with the mounting holes. Have a look at the specs at dynaudio.com for the 240 GT series - the mounting hole distance (diameter) and see if the speaker you want is the same.
