I was planning on put the speakers all six speaker spots. but my question is once I see there's the quick connect in the door slot. but is it really that simple or more complicated. and whats the best cd player I can buy without all the flask but has good performance quality. :hick:

I can answer one question.. by being a customer.

Pioneer makes a BADASS headunit. The DEH series is remarkable.

The mosfet 50x4 DEH-1800 is what I have. I like it alot its only about 100$

It's not hard to put speakers in. When I did my sonys in the door, I cut off the quick connects from the factory and just put ends on them for the speakers. Not sure what your asking

what i am asking was if i get speakers for the cougar willl I have to mod anything. like for instance "no company makes quick connect speakers anymore" or will I have to do the same as you cut them off and crimp them to the speakers.

Yeah man, I got 6.5" Clarions in the doors. sounds real nice. you might have to drill a hole or 4.. and use self-tapping sheet metal screws... but its well worth it.

i like and prefer pioneer decks but ive never used anything else other than an alpine. i hated the alpine. it got replaced quickly with a pioneer.

ive always had the best luck snaking all new wire to all the speakers. i dont know, i just feel better about it and feel its the right way to do it.

try not to buy cheep speakers....

I'm running MB Quart all around (Autobahn series up front, coaxes in the back, 10" sub in the rear). They use stiff materials that give them a really tight, punchy sound, which suits my musical taste (70's-90's rock, not much big, booming bass). I've heard that MB Quart was bought sometime in the last few years and quality has suffered, though. If I remember, Rockford Fosgates of a few years ago used to use more resin in their cones than many other manufacturers, which gave them a similar tight, punchy sound.

Crutchfield.com has the proper adapters for the doors, dash, and back. They are very much universal between the different types of vehicles. That way you don't have to worry about messin anything up.
