Hope you enjoy your time spent in our little corner of the car audio world. Now to get to your questions: If you replace the stock midwoofer then you may as well go on and replace the stock tweeter as well since it will likely not sound terribly good in conjunction with a higher-quality aftermarket speaker. The most common method is to go with a component set (which is a midwoofer and a tweeter with their own outboard dedicated passive crossover network)You do not absolutely have to have an amp to drive aftermarket speakers but the sad truth is amping them will yield the most positive results. Almost all modern head units, regardless of price range and quoted specs, will provide around 15~18 clean, unclipped watts per channel which is, like you said, pretty weak. Again - best results will be achieved with an amplifier but they are not absolutely necessary. It comes down to how much you wanna spend and if you can ultimately be satisfied with the sound of your speakers being driven by the smallish internal amp in the head unit.It all depends on how much importance you place on rear sound. The overwhelming majority here on the board will tell you that rear fill is an unnecessary extravagence at best and a complete waste of money at worst. Personally I do not reside in that particular camp as I like not only rear fill but amplified rear fill but it really boils down to a matter of personal preference.It would appear that most, if not all, of this was addressed in the first portion of my response. Any more questions please do not hesitate to ask and someone will try and help as best we can!</blockquote>
