Default Mid-Bass speakers (sail panel) - what to replace with?

I know..I know.. this has been beaten to death over and over, but from the threads I have searched they all seem to be dated 3 or more years.

Now, I have a '98 T/A with one blown sail panel speaker. This is not the firs time. I did noticed that the Bazooka WF641.5DV mid-bass drivers seem to be a good aftermarket replacement, but apparently everybody is sold out of them. So, right now I have the factory amp and headunit and would like to keep it that way. Does anybody have any suggestions for replacement speakers, that are available, that will fit there and sound as good or better. And, more importantly will not blow on me after a few months?

Thanks..

At this point you will have to experiment a little. Search this section and some options are there. Returns are your friend!

I have several other 6.5" woofers from CDT and MA Audio but they are all SVC. I'm currently at a loss with SAS Bazooka and basically they tell me they will deliver them when they get any in stock.
