depends on your budget mate but a good set of 13cm components will come with a cross over box, then you can run your tweeter to that.

i also have the 1.4 and my front components set me back 220euros but they sound the dogs ********, at the end of the day it depends on your budget.

Yup, all component systems will come with a crossover & cable and you will have to run extra wiring. The existing wiring is poo to say the least.

Why spend 100+ on them and then reuse the fiat wiring is a bit of a waste.

Y is the existing wiring poo, its no smaller than the wires comeing out of the back of your head unit, a circut is only as good as the weakest point!

Re: Re: Re: Re: Component speakers

well, im not looking to spend much more than hundred squids, have been putting the job off, because i got a sub and hence the 6 x 9' . The sound is shite, i really need a fix. I haven't even amped my 6 x9's up off the 4 channel amp. Im a lazy sod.
I think, if i get the components in the front i will amp those up and leave the rears going off the head unit?
What do you think?
Thanks for the help

Hi,

If you are going to pay £100 for some componants, i would start by looking on ebay. You might be able to find a real bargin of some great comps that might cost twice or more new.

You say a 4 channel amp?? Then you can power 4 speakers from it, so you can power your 6x9s and the front componants.

Bin the 6x9's if you have a sub.

Bridge 2 of the channels for the sub and the other 2 run the fronts.

£100 will get you some reasonable components.

The infinity 5000cs or 6500cs from

An extra £20 pr £30 gets you some Focal Access components from:

Personally, Phase Linears or Infinity. The focals are NICE but can be a bit harsh to some ears.

13cm will fit easily with shop bought adapters, the 16.5cm will fit but with some MDF cutting and a little metal bending.
