Changing rear speakers - help

[VX-Tony]

Ok, think one of the factory speakers in my car is buzzing so I want to replace it. I thought about replacing the rears (are there some in the back side panels as well as the shelf??) and if so what should I swap them for? Would like a straight swap, no wiring etc etc and ones that fit into the existing holes.

Suggestions? Not pro kit as I dont want to spend too much cash.

£40 will get you a pair of JBL GTO 5.25 coaxials. i replaced my rears with these and im impressed with the solid heavy quality sound of them.

theyre a direct swap aswell

Thanks for the info CC. Anyone else? Are the speakes in the mk2 172s in the parcel shelf or the sides ?

Theyre in the side bits..... I used the JBLs in mine too

crackin sound from them JBLs i must say. very pleasant for rear passengers, and they can handle a moderate caning. id say go for them, theyre nice and bassy. you dont want anything with too intricate treble in the rear, but these are very suitable in my opinion. i love em!

would definateley say get these

get some 6" subs and fit them in there (mmmmm mid range)

or alternatively stick a set of 2 way co-ax speakers in there

they are in the side panels, next to the little cubby hole in the door card
