replace the front speakers, 4x6's, and then replace the 6x9's in the rear sails. then for subs, get a good set of woofers in a sealed box. Easier for a first system.

I work for Kicker, so I will recommend our stuff.

front I460
rear I690
subs Comp VR's in sealed box
amp IX405D
the amp will put 40x4 to the front and rear with seperate gain control, EQ and crossovers, and the sub part off the IX405D is 390watts mono, class D so it's easy on your charging system, and has a remote gain.
Sweet, yet simple upgrade over stock. Should rock very well.

6x9's? i dont know why people think their so geat, personaly, i'd take your 6x9's and throw them away, id go and by some nice 6 1/2's or 5 1/4's and just modify your 6x9 plate, i'd even throw in a tweeter on each side. you'll get WAY better vocals, and your midbass from a component sys will be alot better as well.

for my 4x6's i got some pioneer 4x6 plate that has a 4" mid and a 1" tweeter in the pate, sounds better like that. and if you got a little money, i'd do kick panels as well...

yes i agree that 6x9s are worthless, but i think any speaker in the rear sail panels is worthless, i just powered my 4x6's off a clarion amp, and powered the stock 6x9s off the deck..
