Boston also makes a slightly smaller coaxial speaker that will replace the
OEM speaker elements in the original grills. I replaced all four factory
speakers with the Bostons and kept the factory look and didn't have to cut
any larger holes. The sound is quite a bit better than the factory speakers,
but still pretty thin in the mids and no bass to speak of. Subwoofer helps
immensely with this installation.
