Another `speaker` question .. door and dash

[Drewster]

The stock speakers aren't very good quality and way underpowered.

I did a 3-way component set (MB Quart) back in '03 just after I got my '02. It took a little work to get all the speakers in the stock baffles but there are 6 1/2" in the door, 4" mid and 1"tweet in each dash location. I'm a big fan of the JL C2, C5, and ZR.

You can do a 2 way since JL no longer has a 3 way set and put the woofer in the door and the tweet in the dash. A generic rule of thumb is that the larger woofer you get (in a proper enclosure) the more and deeper bass you'll get.

The important thing to remember is that all the speakers need to be sealed in a baffle (the air in the front of the speaker can't touch the air in the back of the speaker). And in any car with a lot of road noise, an amp is very important.
