Thread: Stock stereo backlight inop? Which speakers to replace stock?

no problem again glad to help out. you could probably hold off on replacing the rears for now they're not that bad of a speaker. i just decided to go ahead and replace them. i've never been impressed with blankpunt or pioneer either. my taurus that i had i threw in jl 2 ways forgot the model but they sounded good. in my grand prix i have alpine type s 2-way on all 4 speakers and for the money they're a decent one to start off with imo, but i want to get some more jl's when i save some more money up and as far as what brand to get it all comes down to personal preferance. if you're not gonna be running a your commponent speakers of and extra amp i wouldn't bother with getting a 3-way setup just yet. a 2-way would probably do you just fine.

as far as head units go again it all comes down to personal preference. i've had pioneer, panasonic and now i have alpine and i like my alpine the best.

yea there are people who have done custom enclosures to fit 6.5's up front, but if you can't do that you can always buy a kick panel enclosure that will fit a 6.5, but that would involve rerouting the speaker wire from in the door.
