Nope, it's a Pioneer navigation HU...from about 2010 or 11.

Is this the same exact speaker? Found these from another website that doesn't charge for shipping or tax. I think I'll buy them here and save an extra few bucks.

If you're only trying to amp these 2 speakers, you only need a 2 channel amp. Are you trying to do subwoofers too?

Difficult to make recommendations without knowing budget...there are so many....

I would like to spend around 150 or so but could spend more ,up to 250 ,if the sound quality difference is noticeable .

No worries...I ended up getting a Alpine MRV-F300 4-Channel digital. I have had much time in the care because I have been traveling and the car ended up in the body shop as a result of a jack rabbit committing suicide by running into my front bumper on my way home from Las Vegas after the speaker and amp install. What I can say is as they are breaking in they keep sounding better especially as you turn the volume up. They are very clear and clean. I am very satisfied with them.

I just installed these yesterday. Was able to do so without the spacer. Just did some nice homemade mods and they fit perfectly. They sound amazing over stock. Much clearer and crisper sound. My question now is, these lanzar speakers lost a LOT of bass over the stock door speakers. I have the base audio (4speakers) and base headunit. How strong of an amp would I need and what kind to run a small 8" sub, 2 lanzar speakers, and possibly the tweeters if I get some nice aftermarket ones to replace the stocks? I'm a noob when it comes to audio.

Are they well sealed under the speaker mounting ring? air leaks will destroy a speakers bass response, even the slightest ones. I always use weatherstripping under speakers.

It seems like they are. I'll play around with them again tomorrow. Do you or anyone else for that matter have any pics of them installed? Did you run into issues with the back of the speaker hitting the black window slide behind it?
