I'm getting a 10" sub in the passenger footwell all the way in the back. It's very deep there and will only come out 8" which will still give good leg room for passengers. I'll let you guys know how it works out.

There is an old thread about an easy swap of the door speakers for <$100. It makes for a good improvement relative to the cost.

I threw some pioneer tsa-1680r's into the doors and it made a world of difference. They're rated at 220W max, I think 65W rms. I can now go full volume without distortion. I think I paid in the neighborhood of $120 for the pair. Took about 30 minutes total to install.

Ooomph, are the door speakers plug and play or did you have to make a few modifications to fit?

Plug and play for the most part. I didn't get the applicable harnesses (they didn't have any), so I soldered my wires. Only took a couple of minutes on each door, maybe 10 minutes or so on each considering stock removal and finding a decent position for supporting the new speaker for soldering.

I bought the Polk 6.5's today and installed them in my 05 VCA Took about 30 minutes. Just snipped off stock ones and added female connector that clips into the polks. Better but not great to me. What other Speakers will fit my 04? $99 is cheap. $200 range? With Same bolt pattern and stock grills? for even better sound!
