Speaker Fitment and Window Bar/Stop? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys while I was down at NADC looking at my truck I noticed that I might have a problem with my speakers. There is a pic of them below. I had them patch the square hole on my driver's side door and put a hole for 6x9's at the same distance that the passenger door, which had a hole for 6x9's already. CONFUSED? Well I measured the distance between the edge of the door and the window bar and it's 3 and 1/4 inches. There's no way I can fit my SWEET 6x9's in there now.

Can I knock that window bar back? Also I'm going to ask if they can patch it and I'll cut the holes where I want them. The problem is that my friend who got my truck in down there wasn't there. Another guy told me that they could patch it, but I risk the problem of there being a lot of filler(I assume he's talking about bondo) and if the door gets slammed a lot it could crack.

Do they make anything I could possibly put over that bottom section that would look good. I have metal door panels so I don't think that the carpet will look good.

Sugguestions or Advice?
