[QUOTE="TheUnderFighter, post: 7538930, member: 631325"] Correct. Here's a few that would be good in the rear doors These Hi-Vi are sensitive enough to be good ran off the head unit, but have a high enough power handling capability to be able to run off an amp as well: [URL="http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/coaxial/hi-vi-autosound-cf260-6.5-coaxial-car-speaker-pair/"]Hi-Vi Autosound CF260 6.5" Coaxial car Speaker - Pair: Madisound Speaker Store[/URL] These Aura's are quality speakers on a close-out price, way cheaper than you'd usually find them.
