Title: New Front and Rear Speakers mk4
Post by: gjroe78 on 21 May 2009, 10:01
Right i found an old Alpine head(pretty decent i think i paid £300) unit and 6 stacker in my garage the other day so i'm gonna have a go at fitting it this weekend(temp till i sort a newer head unit) but wanting to upgrade the front speakers and rears.
Am i right in saying im looking for some 6.5"(17cm) Coax "Full Range" and i need adaptors ???
And can anyone recommend any ?
Oh and i'm a 100% virgin at this as i just used to take my cars to get the sounds sorted :embarassed: But am pretty good with tools and stuff so not a spanner/screwdriver virgin  :laugh:
The car is a 3 door mk4 by the way  :wink:
Cheers for any help
Greg
