Default Stock replacement speakers?

I am all about keeping the sound system stock. I personally enjoy the stock Monsoon system, However, GM has discontinued the speakers for the B pillar. The ones right behind your head. I do not want to change the head unit, or the other speakers right now, as they sound perfect(in my opinion)
My question is... What is a good speaker to put in the B Pillars that will not require any other modification and will sound at least as good as the stockers? Thanks for the help all

Bazookas from Kee Audio or DoubleD Mods is a popular choice. Kee sells a stock component (deck & monsoon amp) replacement pkg that is good too

This is a stupid question... but is the stock sail pannel speakers considered a sub?? I see the Bazookas are considered "subs?" Is that right? I dont want to put in a replacement "sub" if the stock speakers arnt considered "subs"

If that makes sense. If im just retarded and this is what I want, im just goin to buy the bazookas from DoubleD.

Yes, it's a sub. Search around... A couple ppl have bought some really inexpensive 6.5" subs and been really happy with them.

Please read the Monsoon FAQ sticky at the top of the section so you'll have a better idea of what you're working with. Any decent 6.5" sub is going to sound much better than the stock speaker. The Bazookas are the most popular because they are an excellent match to the system configuration, they sound good, and they're fairly inexpensive.

Ordered the Bazookas. Thanks for the assistance everyone its exactly what I needed. I dont frequent the forum as much anymore since its not my daily driver, so I can put off stuff for longer periods of time. Been driving it much more lately, and man have I missed her. Thanks again
