Thank you. I guess I didn't search enough.

Isn't there a place to put speakers in the back as well though?

Yes but it is not recommended as they are only 3.5 inch, at least until you upgrade your front speakers and decide from there. Bose comes with rears.

I'm looking at the Focal PS165 component speaker with tweeter. Is there anything else out there that is better?

Big, what made you choose the Focal 3-ways over say the Morel Elate 3-ways (603s I think) for a similar price??

I've been weighing up between Focal KRX2s and Morel Elate 2-ways for weeks!

It was not easy by any means, bust sense I am going to be running the sound stage on axis and active, the focals have a beautiful sound. Where as the hertz you can run them off axis and sound just as good. You just have to listen to them, I was at the PA auto show last year and demoed the KRX3's I was hooked. Today they come

Sounds sweet! Looking forward to hearing about them!

I'll be running 2-ways off-axis (prob in window/mirror sails) therefore the outcome may be different.. Gotta spend some quality time listening to the Elate v KRX2 debate soon

Very good, I have installed them twice in the z and both times they are awesome. Their tweeters come with a bracket that lines up directly with 2 mounting points of the factory ones. Make sure to set your crossover to - db's its either 3 or 6, because this will take care of some of the harshness.

Also, they sound great with a head unit, fantastic with an amp.
