agreed if running with a sub, running without a sub you can get away with them

stay well clear of 6x9's they sound shit, look shit, the best thing to do is to get components in the front and in the back or have coaxials in the back, will sound amazing

I have some vibe sek50 components in the front and these are amazing and I have a FLI 4 channel amp and JBL sub for the boot. I am going to get some FLI comp8's to go in the parcel shelf or boot and I dont know about changing the rear speakers because it looks like a bit of a job removing the trim to get the speakers out

They only seem ideal mate cos their cheap and their cheap cos no one wants them they ruin your sub and they fart when too loud. They do mid range tweet and bass al in one which is not the best sound

Very cheap comps are still 100 times better than 6x9's. If you go to a real audio shop not halfords they dont sell 6x9's

You can still disconnect them from the speaker no need to remove it and are your comps amped mate? if not would highly recommend doing so nothing worse than running off your HU or Shitron speaker wiring e.g connect from the back speakers. Never understood why someone would do that

obviously they'll never beat a dedicated sub and set of comps.
but they try tbf! good alternative like if you want to keep boot space or whatever.
