Im looking to upgrade my the door speakers in my corsa at the minute. I've just got standard ones in at the minute but now I've got rid of my sub they really dont sound good at all. I've really got no idea about ICE to be honest, so I'm just looking for some recommendations one what the best type to go for is? What do you all run in your corsas? No real budget to be honest, don't mind spending for a decent set up.
Also does anyone know what the door speaker size is for the corsa b?
Cheers

standards are 130mm and can be upgraded to 170mm with adaptors. Can't remember what ones mine are but they touch the door pocket which means a little bit of rattle with bassy music. So just make sure you check the mounting heights etc.

BassJunkies are doing 17cm Fli Components for £30.
Know a few people that have ran them with no issues.

If you're wanting bass mate I would stick some 6x9's in the back. I have some Pioneer ones (still not fitted to the C yet ) which were really bassy, subs aren't my thing but imo I wouldn't have needed one, they were that good

I have a set of CDT CL61 components in mine. Bit on the expensive side but they are fantastic.
Also have a set of focal 130 VL in the rear and they are decent.
Just have a look on ebay and some usually pop up cheap.

i've never ran mine off an amp but i think i might do when i get my new ones? think i'll amp the door speakers and sub and leave the 6x9's un amped, hope that helps you decide

Very tempted by their Standard Size Deal 2 on there which comes with two standard size speakers, a two channel 1000w amp and the wiring kit for £165 The amp alone is £150 so thats a stupdily good deal! Reckon I'd be able to mount the amp under my seat? Thats the only place I can think of as I've got a stripped out rear
