Re: speaker issue

You will need adapters to fit any other speakers,you can get plastic ones on ebay,or I sell mdf ones for £10 delivered.

Re: Removing original tape deck and speaker covers

You need to take the door cards off to change the front speakers.You'll also need adapters as the oe speakers have a plastic moulding around them and are riveted to the door.You can get plastic ones on ebay,or I sell mdf ones which are better.

Re: 4awg or 8awg?

as above,go for 4 gauge,you'll only wish you had if you get 8 gauge,and a 4 gauge kit doesn't cost much more than the 8 gauge.
