I did that once, too.

I bought some home speakers at a garage sale for $20 (they were Pioneer 10s or 12s) and they actually sounded decent in the hatch of my old Ford Escort. They were 8 ohm, but I had a fairly strong amp, so they didn't have any problems.

IIRC, I sold the speakers to a guy at my school for like $50 or something. I know I made money on the deal.

you'll need a relay for the fogs, assuming you dont have ABS, it should be in front of your battery
