Personally I am running JL Audio 6.5" components front and rear. However, Crutchfield also carries Focal. If you like, I know someone that works at Crutchfield and can give you his name and direct number.

Factory is 6.5". I ran the shallow/slim Infinity Reference. The JL Audio 6.5" components are awesome. I had them in my '02 and '05.

if you change speakers, it would be a great time to install some dynomat (I used Fat Mat), to all inner surfaces of your doors, I went 3 layers thick on the inside of the outter panel. It makes a world of difference on the sound and also just about eliminates road noise.


I have 6.5kickers in my doors, your welcome to come for a listen if your wanting some ideas.

I need new speakers bad in my 02... are they the same size?? what kind of money are we talking about for some of these speakers you all speak of??? I've NEVER had a "system" in any of my trucks. Well, a couple of Walmart-special 8" pioneers behind the seat in a box I built in my s-10 but hardly mentionable. :rolleyes:

Anyways, I'd kinda like to put an in dash nav radio in, something under the rear bench seat for some bass, some nice factory replacement speakers for the highs and mids and of course, an amp or two to handle things. I DO NOT WANT nor need the TOP OF THE LINE stuff but don't want walmart stuff either. What brands or models are middle ground in the stereo world?


Sorry if this is a little off topic from the O.P.

Mitch - I just sent a PM to you and wikdlmm with the contact information for my friend that works at Crutchfield. Don't bother with the Wal-mart specials. Talk to him and tell him what you are looking for. If anyone else wants this contact information, let me know. I want to help were I can.

No, but he will know deals that may not be in the magazine. Also ask him about "open box" deals. These are returned items that may be the wrong size or the wrong thing. They are a little cheaper than a new item. Let him know what budget you are working with and he will find the best deal for you.

If anyone else wants this contact information, please let me know.

Hertz dsk-165's sound phenomenal on a stand alone aftermarket head unit's power. You do not need an amp as they are super efficient 93db/spl, and were designed to run on head unit power only. I am putting them in my RV. Additionally they are a 2 piece component set. Good luck.
