[QUOTE="gckless, post: 7892924, member: 635756"] The 3-way component set wasn't a bad idea for the front, those should be drop-in. Expensive, but judging by the car you are putting them in, you can afford it. Really, in a convertable, you're going to want to be loud more than have it sound amazing. Of course you still want it to sound good, but with all that road/wind noise you probably won't notice a huge difference between a $200 set and a $1000 set if they are the same volume. What are the specs on your amp (RMS per channel, bridged RMS)? I'd say unhook the rear speakers, drop a 3-way set in the front, and run them off of an amp that will give them the power they need. If you don't like that, then go from there. [/QUOTE]
