What speakers will go straight into the doors of an NA MX5?

I need to replace the OEM speakers as they are knackered. Going to be installing a bluetooth compatible head unit at some point as well.

I've had full DLS systems in the past and some amazing SQ and SPL systems but just want something basic in the MX-5.

How much depth do you have to work with in the door trims? I don't get the car back from its reconditioning for a few days so am just making plans and can't check myself.

Looking around and most people go for 6" coaxials in the doors. Will they go straight in? I don't really want to mess around with spacers and the like.

Not sure of depth sorry but I mounted 6.5" AVI drivers without any spacers.

I have just fitted a pair of Clearwater (designed for the NA) They just fit straight in without the need for spacers. I'm sure there are alternatives around for plenty less than the $225 I paid. I'm very happy with the sound though and was looking for a fuss free installation.
