the components: http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/hertz-dieci-p-6122.html
at the min, for this price i cant see any other option, everyone rates them, and theyre award wining comps!
and amp: http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/gto2...ry-p-6226.html
this would provide good power, it also leaves £10 out of your budged so you can pay for p+p

yeah you get two.
unfortunatly its not quite as simple, because its a component, you have a seperate woofer and tweeter, the woofer goes where the existing speaker is, and the tweeter goes anywhere you like (higher up the better)
basically, speaker wire goes from the amp to the crossover, then from the crossover to both tweeter and woofer
it sounds a lot more complicated then it is, theres a guide somewhere ill look it up
Edit: http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81707
have a look through this thread
