Need to replace my front speakers however want to keep it simple and inexpensive

by simple I meant I don't want to start changing a bunch of components I don't have much knowledge on i.e subs, amps, tweeters.

I'm planning to switch them out because there is a slight rattle coming from my driver side speakers, I'm thinking it can be a loose screw, something internally touching the speaker, etc. however I figured that if I'm going to take the door panel apart I might as well give my speaker a tiny upgrade.

taking in consideration that everything is stock and going to remain stock into the future are these speakers fine? if not feel free to suggest other speakers.

Coupe 6MT Premium RAS
Typically a "rattle" like you're describing is simply a broken speaker but you might as well remove the door panel first and inspect because the door panel takes less than 30 seconds to remove so it's not like it's some big chore, it's 3x 10mm bolts and one is in the door latch recess (remove the tiny plastic cover with a flat blade screwdriver, two are behind the aluminum trim for the door pull handle (use a flatblade screwdriver from the bottom of the trim, you will see the slot for it and it pops right off. Next lift the door panel and pull it back slightly to reveal the cables for the door lock and opener, both are self-explanatory how to remove, unplug the single wire harness for the courtesy light and you're done it's SUPER easy to remove/install.

Careful with how deep the new speakers will fit. Not much room to work with. I couldn't find a speaker anywhere that would fit the rear panels in the coupe.

2 ways to fix your door rattles.

1. Remove the cover plate inside the door handle. Reinstall it with cushioning behind it.

2. Remove your window switch trim. Reinstall it with cushioning behind it.

Remember to empty every compartment including your : sunglass holder, glove box, armrest, ashtray, cupholders to eliminate false rattles.

Good point. I lost a pair of sunglasses in the head liner years ago and still hear them rattle every couple of songs .

Methinks you need to grow up a tad. Your posts are bordering on being disrespectful and if it continues we'll start deleting them. Thanks for your help with this matter.
