Too big as in too deep, too wide around, both?

I wish we had a list of fairings and all the popular speakers that would fit them...

I wonder if JL Audio would fit in that thing (that's what I would buy).

My RF Punch 6.5" were about 1/4" too big to fit in the holes. I used a "flap wheel" I bought at Sears and opened the holes up until they fit. I bought my fairing primed, and it hadn't been painted yet. Only took a few minutes per side to do it. The flap wheel removed the glass pretty quickly.

Still has got to be lighter than a stock fairing, alot of wires and gauges in yours. All that will be in mine is head unit, small amp and 6x9 speakers.
