I bought an 04 ep3 the other day, but havn't picked it up yet and i have got a great sound system in my other/old car (so subs but sounds like it). the one it in ep3 is kind of crap, i will want to get new speakers, accept tweeters, and still have stock head unit and no amp. plan to spend more money in 4 months on subs once i get it. wat are the sizes of the speakers and what ones are the best. im broke since i just bought the car but i can spend around 250 for the 4 speakers, what do you recomend?

how very very very very very very very true... you think it sounds bad? add some nice powerhungry speakers to that lean running OEM HU.... it will sound BAD.

Rule of thumb... for best sound... Sufficient power (HU or Amp), then if still crappy, some "better" speakers that will be sufficiently powered.

Speaker size is 6 1/2" for front and rear.
You will need spacer or just small hacking job with dremel.

Get headunit first.
