Default Replacing stock speakers

My front speakers are blown. Now my questions is, I'm wanting to replace them with OEM stock ones. I've found gmpartsdirect.com but on the website couldn't find the actual replacements. My last resort is going to cartoys and having them install a system which I'm kinda in the mud at this point. My budget it ~$500

Any other ideas, tips, suggestions?

the $20 walmart speakers are better than stock.

May I suggest going to onlinecarstereo.com and getting a head unit and 4 new speakers, then re-wiring from where the monsoon system plugs in by the spare tire. I got a nice kenwood excelon unit for $120, and 4 Apline type R speakers for $200. That worked out well till I added an amp for the speakers and the mtx thunderform sub... sounded great. But that will easily blow past your price limit.

The point is, you can get a basic system that is far better than stock for dirt cheep if you know where to look.
