I just replaced the factory 2-way door speakers with 5" x 7" Alpine SPR-57C http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8551_Alpine+SPR-57C.html and man what a hugh difference these made in overall sound quality!  These are 4 ohms 100 watt rms continuous.  I am not amping them they are just running off the factory Shaker 500 HU.  Mid Bass and Highs are now present and 100% better than factory 2-ways that were replaced.

The Door panel is very easy to remove and the 8" subs in the lower door section are enclosed in their own housing.  I do not plan on replacing the factory subs as they provide plenty of base for my taste. Tools needed would be a panel trim tool, 7mm socket for the 7 door screws and a torx driver for the door latch and arm rest removal.  I connected the speakers to the existing factory harness by tinning the speaker wire and inserting the tinned wire ends into the factory speaker connector.  I then taped the speaker wire pigtail to the factory connector that I inserted the tinned speaker wires into making a very secure connection.

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
