Front Speaker Advice

I need to swap the front speakers in my touring.

Can anyone recommend any coax speakers that will fit in the front? I don't want to spend a fortune and can't be bothered with components and tweeters etc, so i'm after just a straight swap into the original fittments.

I did try a pair of Kenwood Dual Mag's i've got, but they were too deep.

Someone recommended these to me, but i'm not sure?

I plan to fit mine tomorrow but for exactly the same reason...easy to fit and good quality.

Once the full install is complete I am going to do a little write up from my experience, I hope it will be of use to people. I did some searching and I found the kapp for £59.99 + postage but the link is at home (and I am at work...)

Is the original wiring up to it or did you replace it?

no point doing that unless you uprate the speaker wires.

shouldnt this be in the ice section?

NEVER GO THERE!!!

they're a bunch of jokers.....i went there for a alternator swith charge relay, and the fools tried selling me a 0.5 farad power cap!!!

They also thought they could get 4 audiobahn subs (which need 3.5cuft each) into the boot of a nissan sunny,....when i had my back seats out to fit 4 15's that were in 1.9cuft boxes!!!

Biggest bunch of jokers i've seen!!! Even worse than MotorMax....

Mind you, not sure if it's the same people in other sites....the one i went to was in Derby, and i know they have other sites, but not sure if it's a franchise or the same people..!
