Hey guys.. heres what i know..

My stock headunit says.. "50Wx4" so does this mean 50W for each of my speakers? (I have four)

I want to get four, or (at least 2 now and 2 later) I know the fronts are 6.5in.. but are the rear speakers the same size? They look like there differant..

Should i buy an amp? I think the answer is yes.. because i want more power to my speakers.. (nothing hardcrode just a little more) I was thinking about getting a 250 or 500 wat amp.

And than maybe some 175 wat speakers than upgrade later if i really want?

Should i install all this my self of get someone to do? I have some experince with wireing lights in my car but nothing more than that.

I was thinking maybe going to pep-boys or buying everything off ebay and doing it all myslef?

Also where would i mount the amp? I would want it in a visible place? I was thinking the sealing?

Thanks for any help.

Not really..... but if you dont want to have to make your own adapter, just go to any car audio shop and they can do it for you.
