I'd rather spend my money on performance parts, but I've blown all but the rear hatch speakers on the car. So, I need to replace them so I can listen to music.

I don't want to drop a ton of money into the sound system, so what would you guys recommend to replace the b pillar, door and hatch speakers? Cheap, but decent is what I'm going for

same here... looking to upgrade before i drop subs in

Can easily use any 6.5 or 6.75" speaker in the doors and run just the woofer wires to them (or modify the speaker) -- if you want a more direct replacement and more sound -- go for the Infinity 62.7i for about $100 (<$50 for other lower end replacements typically)

sails -- don't go cheap here if you don't want to add a sub -- look into either Elemental Designs 7Kv.2 or CDT M6 -- Image Dynamics also makes one I haven't heard

forget about the hatch.....if you must, don't spend more than $30 on any 4" round speakers

--

as for the other post....your question is completely different as you wish to upgrade, not replace

why do you want new ones?

replacing to me means you aren't necessarily looking for an improvement -- just something equal to or slightly better than stock

if you want to upgrade -- give us a budget to work with

so does the above post help then if you're looking for more simple replacements? Replace both the rears with a/m, or just one with stock..

I put $50 a pair kenwoods all around, very happy w/them for the price....6.75 in front and sailpanels, 4" in back.....

I thought about putting a 6.75 sub in the sailpanels, but the kenwoods allready vibrate the f outof the outside of the car LOL
