Alright, I've got a crappy old 1993 Nissan Pickup, w/ stock speakers and tape player/radio in it. I want to upgrade that, but I don't want to go overboard. There are two speakers, I'm not sure what size, I think they might be 5 1/2" speakers, but they're smaller than the holes in the doors. I've got non-original doors on the truck, and the previous owner cut up the speaker area(and he did a horrible job,) I think he put in better speakers. Would a pair of 6" x 9" 3 ways work? I've got no problem cutting the area, in fact I'd like to because it looks pretty shitty right now. I'd like to spend under $250 total. Is this possible/plausible? Also, I'd like to do the installation myself, I like to do things like this so I can learn about how things work and how things are put together. What are some good car audio sites? I've been looking at Crutchfield, but people say that it's overpriced. Thanks!
