to reopen this topic, can you get 3.5" speakers that are half decent? i dont want big speakers in the doors and have 6x9's in the back, so not that bothered by bass (not that bass is possible from 3.5" :grin:)

A mate of mine had some little JBL speakers in his dash and they sounded perfectly good to me. Obviously they're not going to blow you away, but they do the job.

The only thing is, i wouldn't buy them brand new as they're pretty pricey for what they are!

 :grin: exactly!

im in no rush to get replacements, was just wondering if it was worth it. i know ones in the door are the answer but dont want to weigh the car down with speakers for trackdays
