Default Help - Speaker install

Guys, I have an 07 ES350 with nav - without ML system. The stock stereo system isn't good at all in my opinion and need to know if replacing the speakers is a job I can handle (I consider myself to be handy but have never done car audio work). What speakers, how hard is the install, etc. Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

it not that hard to do. anything that is taken apart can be put back together you just have to decide if it is something you want to get yourself into. 6 1/2 up front and 6x9 in the rear should take car of this. Im not sure if the stock radio will push them to your liking but you can install a Jl audio clean sweep or a Alpine factory hub which will help add a amp for a better and clean sounding system.

first question i ask my customers are: have you had any other stereo systems in the past? how about your home theatre system, what is it? what do YOU consider good sounding? (we all have different ideas).
how good, on a scale of 1-10 how GOOD do you want it to sound? what music do you like to listen to? how LOUD do you want it to be on a scale of 1-10? (ten being the best or highest!)

and last, and MOST important, how much can you spend? whats the budget? 500? 1000? 5000? 10gs? what can you spend?
(if you can spend 1500-3000 you can get a decent sounding system. and dont let thisnumber sound high, have you seen what the dealership charges for their "premium" sound systems? hahaha)


answer these simple questions and i'll help point you in the right direction.
