Yes. Chances are they will sound like the ones you are removing. The factory door speakers are 2 ohm, and if your new speakers have a higher impedance you will actually hear less sound than you do now, which I know is just not much.

I am NOT an expert, but did a lot of research on this site, and auto electronics sites before any changes were made. Many others have done as Cunningr, but that requires removing door panels and fashioning a replacement support system for the new speakers. A template for the support design is available on Rennlist, I think.

Again, good luck. Its all fun, especially when you finish and what you did works!
