I would recommend that you use the 571A for the front. Also, if you have the stock unit driving them, you are going to see a drop off in lower end and overall sound quality ( so it seems) unless you get some ample power behind them, which you wont get out of the stocker head unit. The stock speakers are extremely sensitive and paper cones, so without an amp, I wouldnt install them with the stock head unit only.

Recommend the 571A up front, put the tweeter up in the A Pilar or some place forward to get great imaging, the 5x7/6x8 in the stocker location.

And a sub, size depending on your liking and need, to reinforce the lower end and then cross over the fronts and rears so they dont have to do any lower frequency work.

Which ones did you get?

The 571A's will potentially require you to do some cutting, to mount the tweeter. Not sure if the tweeter will go in the factory location in the door right next to the front of the armrest where the audiophile version has its tweeter, but a nice hole saw once the front door panel is off makes for a nice location for the tweeter up towards the front of the door panel, the plastic section that covers the mirror attachment and has the defrost vent for the door windows on it.

Makes for great imaging up there. Just a thought.

If you want to use the stock tweeter location, I dont know if it will fit there or not, didnt try cause I was wanting to get the max imaging... outside of wearing headphones lol
