It looks like there are not a lot of options for speakers in this size. Im not looking for deep bass i just want a good quality sound. I have been looking at the alpine speakers and would appreciate some input on what speakers you guys may have in your wagons. Thanks for the help and i really like the site. I have learned a lot on these wonderful cars. I would one day love to have a coupe then i would have all 3.
I believe the stock speakers are midrange only and have a custom fit and screw location configuration. The system can be upgraded but might require a little work to the new speaker's mountings.

On sedans and coupes, it is a bit easier to add larger speaker's on the rear deck. On wagons, I'm not so sure. I've got a wagon myself and would like to hear any edifying stories of successful speaker upgrades/installations as well.
