    if i recall isn't the speakers in the front door 6 1/2 inch? and if i recall about 1 1/2 depth .the speakers you have listed are a five inch and with the right speaker ring they will fit. if you want a over all better sound go with a comp set .

    don't get punch, you can get a way better speaker for a little more. look into components as well. will sound a lot better.

    which brand/model of speaker would you guys recommend?

    those Punch's I'm looking at are only $40 from a local on craigslist.

    how difficult is it to install components versus coaxial?

    hey you sent me a message but i cant replay because your mail box is full.... you asked me about a deck for about 100.00 so ill reply here:
    in all honestly a deck going for about a hundred dollars anit going to give you much. most manufactures entry head units that range in that will maybe have a aux and maybe one set of preouts. in that range kenwood has a deck if i recall is a KDCMP102 for about that price . for about 159.00 you can get a deck with 3 sets of preouts, sat ready, blue tooth ready, and ipod capibilitys and usb . so i would save the extra 60 bucks and get a better deck ....

    A quick Search on this site would have saved you some trouble.

    On a good note, there are some adapters out there that will allow for a 6.5in speaker in the fronts.
