Sail panel speakers are supposed to be the subs in the monsoon system.
You need to replace them with subs. These are 6.5"s.
By the way I have a set for sale in the for sale section.

Right. The stock speaker in the Monsoon System are 6 1/2" DVC (Dual Voice Coils) 4ohm subwoofers. They are wired in Parallel to get 2 ohms for the Monsoon amp.

The ones ShouldboughttheZ are selling would work. They are also x-over for lower freq's so 2-4-ways speaker won't work in there well at all. A 6 1/2 sub replacment is a good idea, Or just get a stealth Box, Amp and a 10" for more Bass.

The trans am monsoon has the dual voice coil subs. The camaro has single voice coils.

But I know you knew that already...lol
