If you are only looking to spend $400, then the dealer is your best option.


If you are willing to spend more, I suggest adding a 4 channel amp, moving the front speakers to the back and putting some decent aftermarket speakers there w/ a 10" sub in the trunk. The fronts and sub would be powered by the amp and the rears by the head unit. This should run about $1500-$1700.

Doesn't have to be 6 speakers (unless you want to use a seperate system up front). You can always use a good coaxial speaker, I like the sound of Polk Audio's stuff or Alpine has a nice set of coaxials that sound good also.
