Default Help requested with speaker purchases - S2000 and F250

I have finally settled a dispute regarding a speaker purchase gone bad. Since many of you know far more about where to get a good deal on automotive speakers than I, I'd appreciate your advice.

I basicly want an upgraded system, but don't want to spend big bucks, and have allocated under $200 for the speakers. The rest of the system includes the factory head unit driving an MTX 4244 amp (45W/ch x 4) through a low level converter. This 4-channel amp will drive two small 4.5" Infinity Kappa speakers located behind the seat in addition to whatever I get for the door. These rear speakers are just used for sound fill. I had purchased Infinity Kappa 60.5cs components, but would be willing to consider alternatives.

I also need to get a pair of 5x7/4x8 coaxial speakers for my wife's new truck. These will be matched with a pair of BA CRX 87 speakers that I pulled out of her old truck. They will be driven by the factory head unit with no additional amp, so they need to be pretty efficient.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Here are a few component systems: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-xHT4L3K94dd/c...1&avf=N&search=

I'm using MB Quart's w/o any additional amplification. They're pretty decent, but I can't find them for sale on-line (came from SoundAdvice, though).

Thanks for all the tips!

I know about Crutchfield, but find their prices to be a bit high.

Mitch - I forgot that you were in the business until Aaron reminded me yesterday. Thanks for your number - expect a call!
