8" midbass drivers are more like midranges in terms that they are 2 1/2" deep roughly, and much lighter than a sub (much smaller magnet than an 8' sub).

Default How bout, who has removed the rear deck to look at the speakers....

Got a pick? What kinda room is there in the METAL that the speaker has to come through? Any idea if it could fit a 7" or 8" driver w/o any cutting or with MINIMAL cutting?

The rear deck speaker cutout is square so there would be a considerable amount of metal to cut.

Midbass drivers in back will pull your soundstage back--might be a concern

The room is there, I suppose, but some cutting involved for sure.
