Hi lads,
can anyone tell me what the best speakers are to fit into the standard holes? Im not after window rattling stuff i just want to improve on the terrible original ones. There seems to be a few about for roughly the same price but i dont have much of a clue, ive never really been into this area. I have a Kenwood head unit but nothing fancy and no amps or anything.
Cheers.

Are the speakers in the back bigger, or are you just making these fit? I just presumed they were all the same size.
Thanks for the help. :D
