Fiesta In Car Entertainment

So I've decided to build a rather tasty sound system in my Fiesta.
As you might have already worked out. 
The Fezzy has quite a good set of speakers in it already but I'm still going to replace them.
First on the list is the front door speakers.

5x7s and 6x8s are rather awkward speakers for manufacturers as only really ford group use them so sales are a fraction of that of 6x9 speakers.

I have however found a pair recommended by a forum member and good friend from Fiesta Owners Club.
They are :
Vibe Slick 57s.

Specs:
Type : co-axial
Configuration : 2-way
Speaker Size : 5.25 x 7.5″
RMS Power : 80 w
Minimum Input : 35 w RMS
Peak Power : 240 w
Sensitivity : 91 db
Freq. Response : 54 Hz – 25 khz
Impedance : 4 Ohms
Mounting Depth : 54mm
Mounting Diameter : 180 x 120 mm
Voice coil diameter : 25 mm
Magnet material : Ferrite
Magnet weight : 10 Oz
Magnet rating : Y30
Recommended Amplifiers : SLICK a0/a1

They should just pop straight into the current speaker positions.

I'll do a photo guide to show how the door panels come off etc.

Watch this space.
