I agree with Roark. For about the same price as a nice set of 3-way 6x9's you can get a set of 6-1/2" component speakers that will give you much better clarity and stereo imaging.
As for the new headunit (you <i>were</i> going to replace the headunit, right? ;-)), just make sure you're looking at the RMS power numbers, not the peak power numbers, and that you stick with a reputable brand (Sony, Kenwood, Alpine, etc).
As for sites, I admit that I swear by Crutchfield. I think that their service more than makes up for the extra cost (which isn't really that much). Generally if you're buying a reasonable amount of gear (head unit + speakers), they give you free shipping and even a 10% "build your own system" discount. Plus they send you the trim rings, installation instructions, and cable harnesses all free. People can point at the $$'s all they want, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find another site that does so much extra stuff for their customers.
