I got my speakers installed by an installer today. When I got home I looked closer at the passenger handle and I noticed this gap..

no mine sits flush, pry off the alum portion at the bottom it should pop right off. underneath there are 2 10mm bolts. try tightening them.

DO NOT TIGHTEN TOO MUCH, i did that thinking that they would stop when they got tight, they start to go through the plastic first. i ripped my entire handle off shutting my door. luckily only a $20 fix

where did you get the door handle part? I talked with circuit city and they said to buy a replacement and they will pay for it.

Yup...I'd definately make them fix that. Pride of ownership and all that...

But moving on, how do the new speakers sound?

The best thing you can do is tune the sound. Even the bestest of speakers can sound like butt w/o a proper tune.
