Now that I have the subs I would like to replace the door speakers. I have a 4 channel amp running the doors and subs; and would like to put in some good quality speakers into the doors. After the bill from the sub I'm missing several body parts (which went very fast on e-bay ) So due to the money issue what is a good speaker that won't cost me another arm and leg?

I installed MB QUART QM 218.03, They fit like a glove with Lucid's 6.5 adapters. I got the on UBid.

uBid Link MB Quart QM218.03CX 6.5in 170w 2-Way Components

By the way uBid's descripting is wrong, buy the part number is right, and they sound great.

I'm with you on the Focals - except I went with the Utopias (165W). In hindsight might be slightly overkill in a relatively noisey convertible (ie to REALLY hear the SQL), but I don't have any regrets.

I have the focals too. Basically you can install any 6.5 inch speaker with lucid's adapter or any other spacer.
