Speaker help I read the stick and tried sifting through some post but I'm still confused. I have a 2000 Camaro, with monsoon HU and the stock amp. I only have one door speaker in the car and its damaged. I have a 6 point cage so the rear hatch speakers are not going in. The interior is out of the car except the dash. I want to keep the HU and amp stock. I like metal, I like it loud and I don't care about base. Every stock sound system has been fine, my 08 civic is cool for what I listen to.
I need door speakers
I need sail panel speakers, not bass so would I just put an extra set of door speakers here and steel the hatch wires?
Trying to keep this on a budget but here is the kicker if I upgrade the HU and amp later I'd rather not replace the speakers again.
Can some one recommend a set of speaker for my scenario?
Thanks
Jay

Have you read the monsoon sticky? The sail panels only have bass so if you want to run a regular speaker there, you will need to disconnect the hatch speakers and run the wiring to the sail panel area. Front speakers are easy, you'll just need to make sure that you wire them as component as opposed to coaxial. I bought rockford fosgates for the front and had to disconnect the tweeter wiring from the mids. Rockford Fosgate R165X3 - LS1TECH - Camaro and Firebird Forum Discussion

I did read the sticky. So would I use 4 of those and take the wires from the hatch? Will they bolt in?
I can get 4 of them from AMZ for $75

For the doors I just have to split the wiring and make them component but for the sail if I take the hatch wires I would leave the wiring alone correct?
Yes they will bolt in, 6.5-6.75 size for the front and sail, the hatch area are 4" I didn't use the grille with mine though since the screws that came with the speakers were too long and the stock ones are too short.

I put a pair of the fosgates in the sail panel and just jumped the wires from the hatch speakers that are gone. The doors I got luck it had the nice speakers from Kee audio and just had some fractured solder joints.
