For your info I already have tweeters fitted front and back, but understand yours are better quality, so that's fine. I read recently of a guy who stuck the front off of Harmon Kardon tweeters to make the look OEM ! Worth considering !

From your very plain instructions I think I could manage the installation OK.

I understand your comments on the parcel shelf sub woofer not worth worrying about.

Next is the question of AMP. I think I will get one straight away, and get all work out of the way in one go.

Thanks again Jeff, and I am sending you a PM.

Cheers

No problem Alf,
Look forward to hearing from you Sir

Focal Access 165a1 components are excellent for the money if you can go to £90. Plus the tweeters fit the standard mounts. I've not bothered with the rear speakers and just fade the sound to the front, poor speakers in the rear would spoil the sound and I doubt you'd notice it missing with good front components.

hello I have the Alpine Symphony Radio how much speaker wattage will this radio handle?, i wanted to replace my original speakers so I could get some better bass, don't want to add anything like a subwooff or any of that, is it worth it?
will something like the JVC CS-J620 be better than the originals?
