you run 6.5" all around. If you are buying from ebay(non-legit) you might as well look at the MB Quart stuff people sell on there but there are very good authorized sellers on the forums like Don aka Pearl96Max. PM him and see what he can do for your budget.

Well if you go into Ebay they actually have a little tool when you are looking at the listings that will help you determine if the speakers fit or not. When you look at the top of the item description, it will give you a little info about the speakers listed. There should be a link that will allow you to see if those speakers fit in your car or not.

BTW, I know for a fact that those speakers will not fit. I have the same exact car. You should look for 6.5" round speakers. The same size speakers are used all throughout the car. Look for some Pioneers too. Generally cheaper and pretty decent performance. If you're not switching out your HU, I wouldn't go with anything too fancy because your stock radio won't do your speakers justice because of it's low output wattage.

Yes, 6.5 will fit all the way around. If you are not sure what kind of speakers you want, go to a local car audio shop and listen to them. After visiting a few shops, you should have a good idea of what you want. Remember that speakers will sound different in your car than in the room that you demo the speakers.

By local shop, I meant car audio speacialist shop, not Best buy. If anything check out circuitcity. I know a lot of people who have been screwed over by best buy. One of my dad's friends bought a tv from best buy. He got it home and was taking it out of the box and it had a huge stick shoved through the tv. He took it back and they wouldn't refund or exchange because he "did not let the store deliver the tv." The box didn't have a hole in it or anything.

Which Polks did you get? db's? I am actually unhappy with the bass from the db models. I don't think it sounds good at all. Be the db subs sound a lot better, and with them going I can't hear the bass from the speakers. My cousin has all polk dbs in his 2000 chevy silverado. It sounds good on the highs but I still don't like the lows....especially at high volumes. I wanna get some cheap momos of the ebay and see how they sound. I saw some mm6's on ebay for 50 with shipping, so if I get them it won't be too disappointing if they sounds bad, because they are relatively cheap.
