Here are some pics of the non-bose speaker and mounting depth. Its hard to see in the pics but the available depth using just a schosche ring is a fraction over 2". With a spacer you've got another 1/2" to 3/4" (notice the depth of the stock speaker).

Also, I don't like using MDF mounting rings/spacers. I've used them in the past and in the three cars I've put them in moisture caused them to expand considerably. I wish I had pics of the ones I pulled out of my Altima, they went from 1/2" to 1" bulges in between the screws.
