ild go with 5x7 plate speekers, they have a woofer and a seperate tweeter. a 6x9 would be to big and mostlikely to deep for your location. do you already have a sub in your whip?

what style truck? i have a crew and mtx makes a box to fit under the rear seats that hold one 10" sub. i cant shake store windows but it sound great in the truck and thats what matters. ive had all types of systems over the years and i think that simpler is better. people try to make the stock speekers sound like subs and it ends up distorting and sounding like crap. ild add a sub and wait on the interior speekers.sir mix alot,metalica,nwa,slipknot, or tool???

does that mean it comes with one 5x7 and one 6x8? because that would be perfect

my box goes under the seat on the driver side rear. the seat can still fold down. jl audio makes a sweet one that mounts under your ctr consol/cup holders. i think that add states both sizes cause they are specialty sizes

im guessing around 600.00 ish the mtx was like 275.00-225.00. if you go with the mtx take out the sub and make sure its pluged in brfore you mount it cause mine was unhooked and i only found that out after i put my truck back together (not fun).shawn
