Hi guys, In have recently purchased my first Celice. It's a 1995 GT 2.0L. laugh.gif

I have installed a Pioneer head unit and Multi Changer, and now want to put some descent speakers in to get the best from my music. biggrin.gif

I would prefer to continue to use Pioneer, but am not adversed to another make for the speakers. wink.gif

Firstly, do you know what sizes both the front door and rear passenger panel speakers are so I can buy and install the same day? kindasad.gif

Secondly, do any of you have a suggestion of a speaker model to use, I don't want to install seperate tweeters or a Bass box, as I will want to sell in the future? tongue.gif

Cheers

I went for JBL's as for my project I'm keeping as Toyota stock or approved as possible. Toyota and JBL seemed to have recently partnered (http://www.toyotajbl.com/) so I thought I would give them ago and i was really impressed and because they are 6" speakers with mounting rings they were really easy to fit.

I purchased both sets of speakers from Ebay and saved some serious cash, here's my setup:

Front: JBL GTO-607c


Rear: JBL GTO-627


As has been suggested the tweeter cabling is there behind the door panel, but I didn't end up using it for my front speakers as they came with a digital cross over unit. I am however thinking of adding a second set of tweeters at a angle to the ones I have already installed and utilising this.

At the end of the day it is all down to personal preference and budget but the research is half the fun!.
