I got a set of midrange drivers from them and I was pretty impressed with the quality. Not the most affordable option, but definitely the easiest if you ask me. The other ones are just 5.25" woofers and 1" tweeters which you can find all over the place. You may want to get a depth measurement before you buy just to make sure they'll fit.

Go to crutchfield.com. They have a large selection of speakers, good website tools, and excellent shipping. Prices are lower or about the same as Best buy and they mail you installation instructions for free!

My speakers aren't that great so I need to replace mine too.

I believe they are just the factory ones but they sound horrible. It is the 8 speaker system which I would believe is the premium system but I am not sure.

What do you mean by joisey?

Here's an older thread from when I replaced my vert rear speakers. This DIY allows you to use the OEM speaker mounts so it looks really clean when you're finished.

Actually, that's Brooklyn-speak. I was born here and I have never met anybody FROM New Jersey who says 'Joisey'.
