:roll: Hi Guys, I have at the moment a Clarion HU and Tweeters I bought from jaycar placed in the 4" factory speakers underneather the grilles. They are running off HU with the 3 Ways 150w Kenwood speakrs all off HU as well... Dilemma I have is should i have 2 Ways in the front doors or leave it with 3 ways??? And if I do need to get 2 ways what brands do u guys suggest or use in VL's front doors guys... Cheers, Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Go and shop around, have a listen to all the speakers in your price range and see what you like best. Its not really any use getting someone to recommend speakers to you, because you will find that they all sound a little different and suit different styles of music slightly.

MR HELE It already had holes there when i bought it so i had no choice to put em in dude!!! Believe me if I had it my way I would have 6" in the doors at all Looks pretty crappy with holes man.... But at the moment i have 3 way kenwoods but been told should put 2 ways as i have tweeters in place where 4" factory speakers used to take residence

for starters you must have coax speakers in the doors if they are 3 way. Ideally you want a nice set of 2 way splits ie woofer in the door and tweeter mounted elsewhere. As for door looking crappy, do u think my doors look crappy?? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeh same here. Would really like to get them redone vacuum moulded as the PG logo over time is gradually becoming less visible
