Ok I will have 450 by the end of the week because Idont have to pay for insurance till march and I want some speakers. I put the 1.0 in the title because my plan is to replace the stock speakers, save, by the premium sound doors, and finally get the extra speakers to put in those. Now I have this head unit already Clicky and it works fine for me so I don't really want to replace it.

What I do need are some recomendations on what to get and where. I have no knowledge of stero's and my goal here is not to make it loud either. I want it to sound and look great doing so. Not too wild about subs either because I am partialy deaf (100% in left ear and hearing aids don't work for whats wrong) so I don't want to damage what hearing I have left. The other reason is I don't want to kill my trunk space, don't care for bass that much (stock is decent as it is), and just not my thing anyways.

One thing I want to have is exposed speakers just becuase I hate the stock grills but the only problem I run into is what to do about the back two. If I had my way I would put oval shaped ones in for looks and fiber glass them in painting them whatever I paint my interior. Sadly though I have never done that so someone else will have to try that frown.gif instead of me. Lastly where should I get this installed? I have read onthe forums amps help quality so what do I need to look at in that department? And finally my budget for the first four speakers and amp would be nice to stay under 500 (without installation) if possible but if it is really worth it I can go higher. (I am making anywhere from 110-150 a week so im not rich but its all mine heh)

hmm for $240 you can find better component sets, like some CDT's.... i have the 94 Hatchback, but dont have any components, just replaced the stock speakers, Alpine 7803 HU, and a 15" Adire Audio Tempest powered by a RF 3001(for now) in a box tuned to 28hz...... for your 8" question, since they do not make any 8" coaxial speakers... you are better off just getting a 6 1/2(or 6 3/4") component set. unless you buy an 8" midbass driver and a tweeter with a crossover, but i think it will be better just to stick with a 6 1/2"(or 6 3/4") component set.... the reason i am telling you to get component sets, is because they sound alot better than coaxial speakers, and perform better(ofcourse amped that it)... you will have better imaging and you will be more pleased with them than coaxials...but you will have to buy a 4 channel amp if you want the best performance from your components(even coaxials speakers do better amped)... hmm, if your sisters boyfriend knows what he is doing then let him do it.. and if i remember right you want new speakers in the front and back, so that $240 will be too much if you wat another pair and an amp.. i recommend these

as you can see they are only a $150, and well the reviews speak for themselves.. you could buy two sets of these and!.....
http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLP804Z to power them..

other 4 channel amps on sale are from... Kicker, MTX(stay away from the Roadthunder stuff if possible), Pioneer, Kenwood, and US Acoustics(they have a good deal on the USC4085 !!) well thats all i have for now, Later.
