I'm thinking of getting a new sound system for my Bravo. Will be getting sub/amp/components/head unit.

What do you reckon of this lot? Also, how difficult is it gonna be to wire in?

Sub/Amp

Components

Headunit

I think you should get something better then those speakers you want to feel a real sound difference :)

In my opinnion the component you should spend more money is in the speakers. Can you make the budget to at least 150€ ? To get a better 2-way component speaker.

For about 150€ i have bought the phase cfs in 16.5cm and i am very pleased :)
But.. this are 16.5cm, need a adapter to fit the bravo doors. You can choose the 13 cm if you don't want to buy/make an adapter.
 
Sure, don't forget to amplify the front speakers :)

The wiring on the speaker will be very hard. Don't want to disapoint you but will be...
To wire from the ampflier to the crossovers is easy, but then to pass wire to the doors is really hard because you can't use the existing wire. The new wire will have to go trough the door "joint" :|
 
Its actually fairly easy if you can manage anything that haynes grades at 2 spanners. the extra wiring can go inside the trunking that exists already (if you are careful) or can go through a hole drilled and gromitted if you cant get into the trunking. It sounds scarier than it is.

The components you have picked are ok, but they ARE budget speakers. Also, they are significantly smaller than the gaps in your door, so you'll be making spacers for them. If you've heard some of our installs with better ones, you'll be converted and will spend more on speakers!

I'd suggest that for not too much more cash, you could step up to infiniti reference components. (for example 5010cs or 5020cs if you want to stay smaller than the 16.5cm speakers)
Afaik THESE will go in no problem. some folk have made spacers, some seemd to fit straight in. I've used this particular model and thought they were pretty bloody good for the money. (so much so that if/when i replace my current car, i'm gonna get infinity kappa speakers next time)

Hope this helps
