Default Front Door Speakers

I know some people have replaced the front door speakers on their cars.

What did you use? What do I need to use to keep the factory look, i really don't want to have to mount tweeters.

Can't speak for drbob, but those are what I used. Just put in the back pair today. They sound better than stock, but I still think the H/U leaves some room for improvement.

I just installed Sony XS-V680HB speakers both in the doors and in the back. These are 2 way, 6x8 speakers with tweeters in the center. These are great speakers! I have the Shaker 500, which sounded good before-but I can't believe how much better it is with these Sonys. They're direct bolt-ins, just had to break off one tab on each front speaker. I got harness adapters from Crutchfield and soldered them to the speakers so I wouldn't have to cut any wires. I was a little nervous about the install, but it turned out to be a breeze. Some of the best money I've spent.

I got the Sonys from Electronics Express. They were $62 and change plus $14.40 shipping per pair. Best price I found. The 2 pair were like $154 something delivered. Fast service too.
