Mounting Speakers in Interior Panels

I'm trying to mount a set of JL Audio component speakers into a side panel in my boat. I'm worried that the interior material will look bunched up around the speaker. Anyone have any tips on getting it to look right?

the key to keeping the material from bunching up is a slow rpm on the drill when putting in the screws and cutting the hole corectly i usally cut the hole in the vinal 3/4 of an inch smaller than the mounting hole
works great for me
