Speaker placement?

Those aftermarket kick speaker panels are a bit foolish in my opinion. There are cutouts in the doors for speakers. I'll never understand why so few are willing to utilize these factory provisions. Maybe if the aftermarket would repop the speaker grilles that factory installed with a premium sound system. Good luck with whatever and wherever you choose.

pretty sure my car was never intended to have speakers in the doors.
the kick panel speakers are in the pic, you just can't see them, which is exactly the point.
