You have 6x9's in the rear deck, 6.5" in the front doors, and tweeters in the dash. Any speakers that match those sized will fit. I'm not sure what size the tweeters are. Just pull one and take it to Circuit City with you. With the stock premium sound system you don't need anything high dollar. Just some decent Blaupunkt or Infinity replacements will work great...

I believe yall are in america, cos I haven't heard of Circuit city, but, there are some speakers and Subs this side of the pond in the UK produced by a firm called Monster. They apparently offer medium range punch for seriusly low prices. I think its a set of 6" x 9"s for £15 quid. Quite cheap I think you'll agree. Unless its cheaper in America, I've never been.

Monster makes good speakers but they're hard to find here.

Tikrapt... I believe, on that car, that you have to pull the side of the dash out. It's not that hard, just have to be very careful not to break anything. When you do figure it out let me know.

if you really want to upgrade get some subs at least 10" or better. women love the vibrations from the subs. i have a wall of 4 10" subs right behind the seats in my truck and it is like a back massage on normal volume but if i crank it up the whole world is shaking. but small 6X9s and 6.5" help a lot if you are just trying to upgrade the system
