Totally did this. The swap is AMAZING - the dash speakers are now louder than the door speakers. And of course I had to order a sub to balance out the sound... :p

I'm glad you guys posted pics, the hardest part was mounting the blasted things. >_< They vibrated a little at first but now they've settled in.

i think I'm going to try the one-screw-with-electrical-tape method pictured above...right now the speaks are mounted with zip ties. :D I'm trying to decide which, of those two choices, is LESS ghetto ;)

thanks for the assists, everybody :D

The Car Stereo Guys here suggest JL Audio or Alpine Speakers for around $90. They said they would do a simple install for $40 if I brought my speakers. The internet sells these brands and Infinity for $55 to $90 which is ok by me if they sound better. I will have my 2006 Xb for 10 years. Anyone have only 2 high end dash speakers on a stock head unit? Thanks, Jeff
