Those or the Dayton DC28F. If you want to put out more, the LPG 26na tweeters are $37 each and are very good tweeters. Only thing is you don't want to cross them over lower than around 3.5khz (LPGs, I mean).

If you haven't already bought it, I'd strongly recommend an Image Dynamics ID8 over the RE8 for the money. It's only slightly more expensive and is a much better subwoofer.

eah kick panels are pretty much out of the question for my car, i put my foot right where they would be, and i'd kick the crap out of them geting in and out. I just need to find a pair of tweeters for my car..

btw, im buying an RE8 tonight, so maybe i could use that in an install.. i was thinking a spare tire deal if i can find a way to mount my spare tire elsewhere (Actually hell, i could use my 13w1 in my spare tire place, but im still buying a re8 tonight :D )

Something like this, my wife's car

Not componets, same problem as your car, speakers mounted low in the doors. Installed Polk Audio DX6 in the doors and made these panels to help bring the sound up. It really helps

i'd be afraid of doing kick panels.. i'd endup well.. kicking them. you sohuld also remeber how tiny saturns are

big guy + little car + kickpanels = disaster... :D

edit: tweeters in my sail panels, that woudl be a good start imo.even if i have to wait to afford a component set.

Definately Kickpanels. If I remember right the factory speakers are mounted low in the doors. Bad Place For Speakers. A good set of kickpanels will really make a difference in the sound of your car
