the front and rear has 2 165mm mid/bass speakers and 2 dash tweeters... You can buy component kits which are direct fit (and the speaker covers fit back on) or you can fit 170mm speakers but the speaker covers wont go on if there deep speakers!

If you can find components they will give much better sounds.. I am using 2 way speakers but my stereo lets me adjust the sounds for each speaker and i only get high notes from mine..

If you have a sub 3 way front/2 way rear.. if not 3 way front and 3 way rear (I bet some people will disagree tho?)
