I ordered 2 pairs from w w w.allusamotorsports.com (can't direct link, don't wanna break the rules as I don't think they are a sponsor) for just over $150 shipped. That was the cheapest I could find shipped on my hunt.

Thanks.
Search the thread and there are a lot of posts on installing new head units. If you order from Crutchfield they will include the dash adapter if you are using a single din and also charge you 1/2 price for the wiring adapter you will need and include a speaker wire adapters. I am waiting for the Pioneer AVH-P3200BT or the MVH-8200BT. I just got the Kicker speakers and will do the install this week.

I was at Best Buy looking at speakers today. I wondered if just speakers would help, thanks!

The stock speakers are like plastic frizbees!! The kickers have a metal frame, huge magnetic, a really impressive piece!!

I have the infinity speakers and I'll be upgrading to the rer mygig headunit soon. Are the kickers an improvement over the infinity system ? Also so done mentioned the amp is junk. Any reason why ?

I just changed my headunit to the mygig and I love it a lot ! On top of that I also noticed the increase of power and loudness to my speakers, what I don't know is if I have the infinity system with the kappa speakers in it ? Would the amp or the radio say anything on its face cuz my radio is the res version and I didn't see anything like that on the face. I also was told that the dash speakers and the sound bar speakers were 6x9 speakers ? I have seen the ones in my dash and they look like 6x9 but I cant see the soundbar being the same. Burnout88 showed pics that he put in both sets of speakers and they were round whats the deal with that ?

I just ordered 2 pair of these speakers, can't wait till they arrive! I think it will be a great upgrade come top off season!

Thanks for the heads up and review. These are $40 cheaper than the Alpine ones I was looking at and have factory mounts!

In the case of the owners with the factory Infinity Sound system, would the speaker in the rear have to be changed as well or just the ones in the dash and sound bar?
Thanks.
