I'm getting new speakers & a headunit for my car (06 LS, eh), basically because I want an ipod output and I think I'm about blow one of my speakers =/

I read or heard something that some people lose connection to their Driver Information when they hook up a headunit. True or False?

Also, what are the basic information I need about getting new speakers. I have friends who are going to help me pick speakers out, but I just want to know the basic information that I should know about my car, incase they need it I guess.

Any recommendations? I don't want cheap speakers at all, but nor do I want to spend more than $200ish on them either.

 

FALSE

 

200 all together or per pair? also read the FAQ i have stickied on the top of the page

 

$200 all together, but I honestly don't know if that is a reasonable price range or no.
I'm willing to go up to $300, but I still have to get a headunit also =/

 

My advice...goto the store find out what you want. Write down the Model # and Brand...Search ebay, check seller feedback making sure they have done business on ebay and have 93%+ positive feedback. Buy it on ebay!

 

Yea thats exactly what my friend told me to do. He said you can buy new, but might as well give ebay a look.

When speakers are new, whats an average total price for speakers? Just to have an idea.
I'm not up for getting ripped off =]

**added**
Is that refering to a headunit being installed in an 05-06, or the actual 07+ radio being installed into an 05-06 cobalt?

 

that's refering an actual stock hu swap from an 07 to an 06

speaker price wise can def be done... probably not the best ones if you go retail thou. just watch out on ebay theres usually no warrenty

 

i got my infinity speakers (pair of 6.5's and pair of 6x9's) for like $200+tax. that was buy one pair get second pair half off though. just look for sales if your buying new.
