Default DD AW'S and BT brackets

Finally making some progress on my install, work keeps eating up my time. Anyway, looking at the AW's and the BT brackets it looks like the AW'S are intended to be installed from the front side but not sure there will be enough room for the AT28'S. If I mount them from the back the opening in the brackets looks close to the speaker surrounds. Which way have the rest of you mounted them? Thanks SF

Disregard the red circle, but you can see how I had them mounted.

I mounted mine from the rear of the brackets with no issue.

Thanks guys, just wanted to make sure. It is close so I'll need to get the distance perfectly even all the way round.

U got one option brotha, screw those suckers into the smaller screw pattern on the bracket and ***etaboutit!! They will be fine.

BTW, the smaller hole patter screws are hidden by the seal gasket.

Thanks T, I assumed that none of them would line up. Very good info.
