help...

hey all, pretty much i jst got me first car
and im soo happy with it, but everyone says the first thing to do is change the speakers.. ok, soo i thort il do tht. BUT i have no clue on good speakers, good makes, or anything.. or value for money.. wana do front n rears.. and mayb add two into the parcel shelf..
its a Grande punto so its 16.5cm in the frmo and 13cm in the back..
can anyone help me with choosing speakers which are class but dont break me wallet.
thnks

Actually, I would upgrade the HU first before the speakers.

I would spend the money on just the front speakers and preferably an amp to go with them. How much do you have to spend?

i dont know if i want too change the HU, its me first car, and i dont really wanna mess it up, think speakers first then take it from there.. maybe sub later on. me budget is.. i dont know.. i dont want top end stuff thats tooo much bout middle range or so...
also, wots the diffference between a coaxil, component and 2,3,4,5 way??

Coaxial - the tweeter and mid and mounted together
Components - the tweeter and mid are 2 separate parts
2, 3, 4, 5 way - essentially the number of 'speakers' mounted in a coaxial setup (although you can get 3 way components which consists of 3 speakers - mid bass, mid range and tweeter)

cheerz mate, that makes sense now..
what do you would be best for me wants and needs?.. what are good mid-range models and makes? thnks

Budget first Sami! Then we can make suggestions.

well, propbably around £150 -ish for an HU and then mayb £150-200 to for front n rears and parcel shelf 6x9 (saw a GP with em last nite) coz i was slightly worried about the metal bar running through but that can be overcome. is that a big enough budget?.. i dont want top of the range stuff but a happy medium
also, if anyone can help how can i wire interior lights to the car battery
thank u.

Anything in particular you need from the HU? There are loads about for the £150 mark.

I would look at the front speakers only and spend somemoney on an amp, something like

For an amp I would be looking at a JBL 75.2 or, as you're thinking of getting a sub later on, spend a little extra and get the 4 channel version, the 75.4 - 2 of the channels can be bridged to drive a sub.

There's also the option of getting kit second hand too.

Easiest way is to get a plug-in light powered off the socket for the cigarette lighter. If you put `cigarette lighter light' into Ebay you'll find a few. LED lights have the advantage in not using much power; less danger of draining the car's battery

aye, was thinking about doing that, (plugging in from the ciggy socket) but i dont want wires running all over the place.. .. im fussy like that. haha
aye, i think il just scan for HU, see what is out there at the moment and what has some good features but also good value for money. aye, think il just change the front speakers fairly soon... start with something easy

chaos mate, thanks for the link those speakers seem like the dogs.
