1) Will these fit into my 206 (for the front) and it's simply a case of changing the two sets of speakers?
2) Will it be fine even with the stock headunit?
3) I presume I'll be getting another headunit next month - will this be easy to connect to or do I need to do more stuff?
Cheers guys and happy Friday!

2) yes will be fine with the stock headunit
3) depends whether your car pre plex or mux but not alot required

#4: Re: Speaker help... Author: SamNI96, Posted: Fri May 30, 2014 4:30 am ---- What about the tweeters? Can I leave the original ones in, do I need to get speakers with tweeters incorporated or could I buy tweeters seperately?
#5: Re: Speaker help... Author: doski, Location: WarwickshirePosted: Fri May 30, 2014 7:54 am ---- Hi i recently upgraded my speakers to some halfords EDGE ones they were cheap and the only reason I upgraded (£10 a pair)
yes these will fit your front doors but if its the new model 206 I would order some spare plastic pins as these break easy and only cost pennies If its the old style then the speaker cover is rubber and pops off.
Ideally you should buy coaxial speakers as the tweeters in my car hardly put out any noise and having component speakers (single driver no little speaker in the middle) they would need to be amped to sound good.
you can leave the original tweeters in though as there's 2 sets of connections in the door 1 for tweeter 1 for 6.5" speaker
wiring in a headunit is fairly easy and will upgrade the whole sound but you may need a wiring adapter for the stereo
What about the tweeters? Can I leave the original ones in, do I need to get speakers with tweeters incorporated or could I buy tweeters seperately?
The speakers you linked are co-axials, ie the woofer and tweeter are mounted on the same axis (tweeter in front of the woofer)
If you leave the stock tweeters connected as well, you will end up with two tweeters on each side, wired in parallel for a load of 2Ohm instead of 4Ohm, for the higher frequencies... Don't know what the HU will think of that, but in general they don't like less than 4 Ohm...
If you go with those speakers - I'd disconnect the stock tweeter.
You could go with a component set, ie separate woofer, tweeter, and crossover. On the stock speakers the crossover is simply a capacitor wired inline to the tweeter (the very simplest form of high-pass filter there is) and glued to the tweeter.
Aftermarket component sets typically have more involved crossovers using multiple capacitors, coils, and resistors on a separate circuit board..
