Angry Speakers don't fit in my Camry - need SAP or adaptor but where?

Screw holes on the speakers do not match up to the holes left by the factory speakers, even though the speakers themselves are the same size.

Does anyone know where I can get adaptors or SAP's or whatever you call it so that I can install aftermarket speakers in the front and back of my car?

This is for a 95 Camry.
Thanks.

Oops, actually they are 6.5", the right size for the camry. I just pulled out the manual for it. In the back there is a "cut-out template" with what looks like a SAP design..

I took a small piece of metal (specifically an unused PCI slot bracket from the back of my computer), drilled two holes in it as a "bridge" of sorts to line up the screwholes to make the speaker fit in the hole. It's not exact, but the fit is tight and it's a really easy way to do it. Cheap too.

Edit: Of course I sawed off the remaining unnecessary metal so that it wouldn't get in the way.

Ingenius. But it'll take longer than just drilling it though.

I'd just get the SAPs cause doing it a ghetto way can lead to air leaks along the front.

I see. I've checked Crutchfield and it lists several "universal" ones but none specifically for the 95 Camry LE. Is there a way to tell them apart?
