The highest quality would be the Reference, not trying to judge you, but I would guess it to be out of your league. The SLCs are the more affordable, yet still high end set.
During this GD, the SLC365 is $300 and the kick version $359
either the KX165 or the SL165

Yes the References are quite up there.
Most people are content with the standard version.
The SL165s are $120.

That would depend on your skills. It is not difficult for the average person with little knowledge with cars.

So, I bought these during the first group buy, and installed them shortly afterwards into my 06. They sound absolutely amazing, and like Pearl mentioned in the first post, you'll be hardpressed to find another set for this price that sounds this damn good. 
If you guys haven't jumped on this deal, I would highly recommend that you do so. You won't regret it. Great product, great seller.

Theyre oval, whens the last time you visited a concert,theatre,studio,etc that had oval speakers? Its not optimal for music reproduction. Not to mention you would have to destroy your rear deck to do so AND they cost more than the 6.5s
:-/ i see.. point taken. only reason i inquiried is because my installer can fit them in and said it wouldn't be a problem. well screw that idea, i'll send you the $420 for the slc 365 and the sl 165 ($300+$120) in a few minutes to your paypal address (MyPearlTPI@aol.com). thanks for all of your assistance.
Don,
What would you recommend for the rears? I know that the SLC265 would be good for the front, but don't know what to get for the rears. I would like a little bit of a bass, nothing crazy. Thanks

Either the KXs or the SLs will work fine, all dependant on the power your using for em.
