[QUOTE="GBloes, post: 8750334, member: 682063"] If you’ve got a decent shop near by best thing to do would be talk with them and see what they can do. Failing that, or even if you do do that, crutchfield.com is a great place to start. they’ll filter everything by what works with your car (“find what fits my car” or something), I don’t think they sell anything that’s actually bad. If you’re so inclined I’d recommend browsing around their site and maybe reading some of their articles. That’ll give you some basic knowledge that’ll come in handy if you decide not to walk away from this. You can’t really get much more power out of OEM anything. You can certainly improve upon it but you won’t get too much more. If you’re willing to spend a few hundred on an aftermarket amp and speakers there’s less than no point trying to make OEM louder. Dollars spent on decent cheap aftermarket everything will be much less for what you get then trying to improve stock. Unless you’re after better sound quality, but that’s the only reason to upgrade speakers without the power source. If you find this sort of thing interesting definitely scroll through crutchfields articles and read whatever strikes your fancy, those articles are intended for people like you and will give you a good foundation for doing your own research, if you’re so inclined.
