alpine is a great option for both amp an speakers. and I had to use kenwood for the 2 in very back.. just know in advance when you do this you lose turn signal chime , door chime
and on star. none of these 3 is a great loss. you lose this because you dont use the bose amp once you replace them

I dont really looking for loud audio but quality with decent bass without adding a Subw .
After install the kenwood HU there was a noise on speakers coming from the bose Amp.
Then replace Bose amp for a cheap brand amp and the sound turn out to be pessimal. Then spend more $ on this pioneer amp/spk which should be enough for my needs (hopefully)
I lost the chimes after installing the first Stereo .. I told the guy to not connect the chimes which I dont like .. I would paid to lose Onstar ( Next project to remove it and replace with anything else )
Which Kenwood speakers would you recommend for the back .. May keep the Oe tweeters with the Pioneer system or need to replace it ?
Will install on Saturday . I will post reviews on Monday

Ending replacing the speakers and Amp . Took me 1 day to do all .
run speakers wires from OM amp under center console to the rear seat for new amp
4 way pioneer speakers 60 watts Rms
pioneer amp 100x4 @4ohm Rms
sounds much better than Oem system
Bass is decent , do not expect a sub sound from a 6.5 speeker but it is more than ok .
sound quality is great and it can gets a lot of louder than Oe
btw the front Oem speakers are 6.5 , rear are smaller but you can use 6.5 all around without mod .
So far Im very happy with the system perform , I dont need to compete or play music for the neighborhood , just quality sound while drive and this system gets me there for less than $250
Last photo is the POS amp that was installed by a car audio shop

The pioneer were enough for what I need @ much lower price, are very loud without distortion ... I will said Im 90% happy with the way they perform . Could use a little more highs , next step get a compact Sub with amp built in and the 2 speaker for the back pillars .
I would like to try the Infinity K on the rear door , May get a pair in a while after buying the Sub .

Hey Miami, Are you powering all the speakers from before ? I currently have the bose premium package, (i have a center speaker) 2 way component in the front, i think just single midrange in rear doors, and a couple of speakers in the back. I'm thinking of going aftermarket. You said you could go 6.5s all the way round ? Do you remember the size of the tweeters by chance ?
Am leaning for Hertz MPK165.3 but wondering if the tweeters will fit behind existing grills.
thx

Id didn't want to change the grill
If you find the right one let me know .
I will be switching to Kapas , will be a good idea to replace those and the smalls on the front pillars

You think they're tweeters in the back ? I was trying to tell the guys in the custom install place that I wanted to keep them as part of the equation, but they were of the impression they should be abandoned so as to not mess about with the balance. I know they want me to abandon my center speaker, leaving me with 2 tweeters up front and 4 midrange (doors), but am tempted to go for a JBL m8 DPS which could give me 5.1 sound again, so when i eventually get KODI/XMBC running in the car, it can be 5.1 for everyone.
Can I check, do you have the sizes of the tweeters you bought from amazon ? So as to change my plans if the tweeters i'm looking at are too big.
