Focal K2 system upgrade
Found a few post about these speakers, but the thread was so old I figured it be best if I make a new one.
Specs:
Audio Control 4.1 connected to JL CleanSweep
3 way Power Bass 6.5 2XL
2 way Power Bass 6X9 2XL
900 5 channel amp
Found a gold mine, full focal K2 system that came with a Jeep when purchased. He wants to go marine grade, so he can go off road with the top down. All I have to do is supply low grade marine system for $500.
System Upgrade.
2 way Focal KR2
2 way Focal KRC
FPP 5300 5 Channel Amp.
Do I have to make brackets to get the K2's to fit? Anyone with experience feedback will be appreciated.

If they're going in the front doors then you'll have to make a bracket to fit where the stock 10's are. Should be pretty easy to DIY out of black abs.

The front doors in the G have a 10" woofer, 3.5" mid, and a tweeter. To put the 6.5 in the door will require a bracket to fit the 6.5 where the 10 currently sits. Unless I am completely butchering what you're trying to do.

Ah. Understood. Not too sure about clearance between the top of the driver and the door panel, but if there's enough, you could layer the ABS and cut the hole to fit the Focal. That might give you enough room to clear the magnet. Good luck and post updates and pics if you can

Edit:
Not with the K2's. Id originally gotten Focal Polyglass 165 V33 - 3 way components but the tweeter wouldn't fit without cutting, so I upgraded to the K2 Power KRX2 2 way components whose tweeter fit without any modification. The install shop built the adapter to fit the 6.5" in the 10" woofer space.

You can get the adapter from PVC Speaker Adapters - CNC Machined - In Stock or Custom Made
Bose set ups have 10" subs/woofers in the doors. Non Bose have 6.75" in the doors. The web site has both adapters.
They also have the tweeter mounts.
