Yes very easy, just make sure you use a set of pliers to tighten the ties. give htem a good cinching just dont overtighten. And if you want tweeters make sure you let him know so he can send you the backers with those cut out. Also when putting on the grille covers he sends uses a firm credit card I actually used a 1 inch putty knife. Mine have been on my car 3 years and im very happy with them.

The other thing is if you look at my pics i did not drill a hole into the plastic thats why you see about 2-3 inches of exposed wire, you can drill and eliminate that if you want. The other thing to do is to run the wires up the center tunnel than down the plastic behind the seats. really a pretty easy job taking about an hour. quality was great even now im very hapy with it 3 years later.

Hope you enjoy them i know i do

I'd spend the money on better door speakers and an amp (or a better amp, if you already have one).

Putting a speaker right behind your head will ruin the stereo imaging.

I have no problem drowning out my aftermarket T1R exhaust, and any and all wind/road noise top down at highway speeds with just two door speakers...and a sub.
