Hasn't the MKIV got mids AND tweeters in the front and back. I thought most MKIV's had 8 speaker systems?

ther mk 3, and 4 both have speakers in doors and tweets seperate

i put some in my mk 4 and mk 3 gti's both were 6.5

You will need 6.5 comps in the front.  Don't bother with rears (my personal opinion), or leave them standard.  The type/size of sub depends upon your musical tastes.

iv got vibe slick 60s (6.5")in the front with vibe se series tweets and standard at the back all connected to an amp. imo id just do the front as the speakers in the bac are slightly covered by the seats and would be likly to blow. also the standard speakers have a pod that they sit in rivited to the door, i took it out and modded it to fit my speakers so u have a big job ahead 

as for the sub,as said it depends on ur taste and how much bass u want. always get a good amd and wireing kit as this will bring the sub power to its full potential 

hope this helps?

well i have a Focal sub, cost 350 notes but sheer awesome, although its back in the house at the mo until the Clifford is fitted so im just using a rockford punch i have as a spare, thats wicked too

got focal speakers in the front and they are awesome, but also got a set of Rainbow comps worth 400 quid so i may put them in, i love the focals tho and they match my sub...will prob put the rainbows in my other car... decisions decisions

left rear speakers as standard but think i may change the tweets for something better as they play a big part
