Ive got an upgraded Head unit to fit in minewhat's powering them? if its the standard head unit, then just stick standard speakers!
I know of Focal and not cheap are they haHow much do you wanna spend? I upgraded everything in the Clio to Focal and did quite a bit of sound deadening. I opted not to spend anymore as there's a limit to how good they're going to sound ion the stock locations in a 17 year old French tin box.
Mine are driven by an Alpine HU and Focal 450w amp, they sound well enough for me.
Yes they will still work, however depending on how the stock system is setup will alter how they perform. If the OEM signal frequencies are split at the speakers then your Coaxials will perform as intended. If the frequencies are split at the head unit then your coaxials will only be receive mid bass frequencies anyway and your new tweeters won’t have much left to do.Rather than start a new 13cm speaker thread I thought I'd jump on here. I hope you don't mind.
1 of my front speakers in the 182 is buzzing a bit. The cones ripped.
If I was to buy coaxials with the tweeters. Can I just change the speakers in the door and leave the factory tweeters, will they still work? I don't really want to start to take the dashboard out so thought I'd ask if it's OK to do this?
So you're saying fit coaxials in the front not component?Yes they will still work, however depending on how the stock system is setup will alter how they perform.

Taking the dash top off is literally a handful of screws and clips. Even someone who has never done it before will have one out in 20 minutes so I’d strongly advise you either fitting a proper component set or just replace the front mid drivers.
Okay so you already have a component set. These are made up of a 5.25” mid driver in the doors and a set of tweeters in the dash.So you're saying fit coaxials in the front not component?
I'm not that clued up on audio in cars Tbh.
They're the original speakers fitted in my 182.Okay so you already have a component set. These are made up of a 5.25” mid driver in the doors and a set of tweeters in the dash.
Coaxials are a combined mid driver and tweeter in one speaker. I’m saying either fit a whole new component set including new tweeters in the dash or just buy some replacement 5.25” non coaxial mid drivers for the doors.
What are you using to drive them? Stock headunit or aftermarket?
