So I want to keep the head unit standard in my Ibiza as I like the oem look but wouldn't mind a better sounding system so I was thinking upgrading the speakers front and back.

What size do I need/can get away with?
Will they be better quality than oem speakers?

Any thoughts/recommendations?

Cheers

I recently got Alpine Type E's with tweeters in the front and just the speakers for the rear but also got an Alpine h/u fitted at the same time and the sound difference is huge (admittedly I had a blown speaker too previously). The guy who fitted my headunit said the Alana unit is pants, upgrading h/u makes the most of new speakers (im just taking his word on that though)

Think its 6.5" front and rear

Can you retain the steering wheel controls with a new head unit? It's the only thing putting me off tbh is losing that function coz I love being able to adjust it on my wheel. Would like to upgrade to a good system coz I'll have the car till next September :/

Thanks. Could you tell what double din head units would go with the steering wheel functions?
