One last question - where do you secure door pods to?

[dahurldog]

Will they sit happily enough on the doorskin or is some serious mounting required to keep them secure??

thanks again

Some cars, usually higher end ones, have fairly 'meaty' door skins which a pod can be secured to quite nicely.
An N12?, no, you're going to have to go into metal, otherwise you'll get shocking vibrations and a bad quality seal around the edges.
Worst case scenario, the woofer is really heavy and actually pulls the pod off the door when you go over a pothole or something.

A good install is definitely worth the extra effort.
Generally a $100 set of speakers installed correctly will sound better than a $300 set thrown in with no thought.
