If you just want to do your fronts then grab some Alpine Type E components.

http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-Type-E-SXE-1750S-Component-Speakers/dp/B007MTNBSK/ref=sr%5F1%5F1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377225927&sr=8-1&keywords=Type+E+component+6.5

They don't sound bad at all and get loud off stock power.

These components are the loudest cleanest ones I've ever heard:

http://www.amazon.com/Audio-C2-650-Component-System-2-way/dp/B0036D1DQI/ref=sr%5F1%5Ffkmr1%5F2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377225961&sr=8-2-fkmr1&keywords=JL+C2x+6.5s

But you wont get much out of em on stock power would need a decent headunit or 4 channel.


Those $35 ones are better than this?

$30 cheaper then crutch, you will need a cross over unless you just want to rewire whats there now

BTW i just learned the Bose is a 2 ohm system so a 4 ohm speakes maybe to quite so you will need to look for a 2ohm speaker set, if not
you will have to rewire the entire system for 4 ohm.

2 options here keeping with the 2 ohm factory system


are the tweeters ok? they still work then you maybeable to just replace the speaker the 6.5 driver

ya you'll need to do a factory amp bypass if you go aftermarket.

bose is so damn annoying...especially their 1 ohm setups.

still better than the fiber optic shit you find in saabs though lol

You say you want the best then you pick a pair of $35 coaxials, I had to laugh at that (no offense).

Rockford Fosgate T2s retail for $1700 a pair..

Focal, Boston Acoustic, Diamond (older equip. is better), Memphis are all top of the line.

You want the best of the best? Here it is,

Lol this. The "installers" at Best Buy won't do an install if they don't have the exact part to do the job.

Yeah I was thinking about finding a good known car audio place around here first, because obviously they would be cheaper as well. And Idk..I literally have no knowledge when it comes to all this stuff. How much money would aftermarket/rewire way be?
