What I wanted to share is simply that I had no idea how poor a condition my OEM speakers were in. I really hadn't had and rattling or buzzing issues, I justed wanted to replace as it was easy and cheap.

My foam surrounds were half disintegrated, with a light cover of foam present all over the factory grills. The sound from the new speakers is a very nice improvement over the OEM and well worth the $$ and time required.

Do you have link to that crutchfield page? I couldn't find the Polk 4" and want to get some that are sure to fit depth wise.

From my post a few up .... Polk Audio DB 401.

Updated my head unit to the Kenwood KDC-BT55U which allows me to adjust the faceplate colour to the oragne factory (#24 on the display settings). This is a great unit and make sure you get the installation kit from Crutchfield which makes it real easy to install.
