I want to know if it makes that much of a difference,
as I would be paying £40-£70 for door builds, would it make a difference that is worth that?

Anyone with them, please review their quality, thanks.

Door builds are well worth the money mate, the theory behind them is this:
1: more rigid mounting for the speakers = less vibration/panel flex-clearer sound
2: speakers are normally angled toward driving position = clearer sound
3: more clearance behind door panels = more space for bigger/non-factory/better quality speakers-clearer sound
4: look miles better :D

enough persuasion? winkeye
