Sorry, I would have tried editing the last post but it couldn't get it to show back up (plus you guys reply so fast!)
EDIT- I hit preview post and not submit. So nevermind that last comment and here is all my replies:
I really didn't want to spend like over $200 (The total of these is $173 with all the mounting stuff, etc I need)... Considering I normally dont drive more than 15 mins at a time, and I do not drive for a job, I am not in the car that much.
The one thing I would have liked is an Aux input. It says it has one in the back (on the receiver I am looking at). Would there be anyway to just take a cable from there to inside the actual car so I can plug my MP3 Player in? Right now I am running off an FM Transmitter, which works, its just something else I need to mess with.
Again, like I said, I am not spending thousands on a system like you guys do I am not competing nor do I really care for extreemly good sound in a car (when I get LUCKY if I can listen to two songs on my way anywhere).

???????????
Thanks for the encouragement.
OK, so their head unit is Alright, and their speakers are "Average"? What would you reccomend as far as speakers (or does the price go way up)? In other words, spend just a little more $$, or would it be spend ALOT more $$?

Well, I am really not the "screw you car up" type and if something goes wrong you have it all screwed up type of person. I would rather get something that fits.

I don't know what you mean. I have never done any car audio or anything like this before. Primarily one of the reasons I am using Crutchfield, I have no idea how you guys view them, but for me at least, you can call them if you run into problems, they send you detailed instructions how to install it for your particular vehicle, etc. So I dont have to know anything about this stuff if I use them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
I just realized that those Blaupunkt PCxb402's wont fit.
I swapped those out for this:
Blaupunkt PCxb542
I was looking through the list of "Compatible" stuff for the rear deck and also saw these two (the next two best, same price). My question, at least for these rear-decks, it the extra $10 worth it for the larger sizes, and what about the other brand (I have been trying to stay within Blaupunkt though, as I do know in home theatre and other speaker situations to stay within the same brand for uniform sound) of Kicker? Those two are here:
Blaupunkt PCxb652
Kicker 05DS525
