Thanks, Doug.  I do not have PW, just mirrors(don't work). I will pull the
panel and measure depth before i order.  BTW-I put in 4" Blaupunkt last year
and they popped right in and the window crank does not get near touching
them. I don't like the Blaupunkt grills, so will grind off the stock grills
andd use them on the install this time.  Thanks again.
