I am looking to upgrade the speakers in my Mk3 gti. I have a nice new Sony head unit and the standard speakers just arn't delivering enough oomph for my liking.
I am not looking to go down the route of amps, subs and wiring, although this is something i may consider in the future. For now i just want some decent replacement speakers.
I have got my eye on the current Sony range. I like the Sony brand, they are perfectly coloured in line with the rest of my car (red) and will match my head unit. I am happy with the layout of my current speakers (2 trebble in dash, 2 main in front doors, 2 main in rear sides, 2 tweaters in rear sides).
What i want above all else though is a good fit! Don't want to have to start carving up my car! The main units are 17cm and the dash trebble units are 10cm, i think.
Sony do the speakers in 16.5cm, 17cm, 9cm 10cm. What is best? and how do the dash speakers mount, currently they just seem to be pushed in not screwed!? Will my replacements fit the same? Also the tweater units seem speciffically built for the car. How well will replacements fit there!
As you can see tis all abit of a nightmare in my mind. Last thing i wanna do is spend a heap of cash only to find out i have to start chopping my car up!
Although i would prefer Sony speakers i am happy to have others if the fit perfect into the existing closures and work great.
Please help me guys. Let me know what setups you got in your Mk3's. I need help. Listening to my Barry Manilow CD just ain't the same at the moment!!!
