you can try all the usual online places which usually offer good deals:
www.mcs-direct.co.uk
www.bassjunkies.com
www.cel-direct.com
www.caraudiocentre.co.uk
www.caraudiodirect.com
There are loads more.

I recommend that you get some 6x9's to put on the parcel shelf and some coaxials or possibly components for the front. The front speakers depend on what you car accomodates. You might still be wanting an amp to power the speakers as I had some 300watt vibe 6x9's and still blew them using my 4x45watt head unit

i know this sounds stupid but coaxial cable is that the same cable that you use for your TV? As i just use the thin speaker cable stuff whats the diffrence? or am i just being stupid again ?

coaxials are a type of speaker, not the type of cable. It just means that the woofer of the speaker and the tweeter are integrated whereas in components they are seperate components. Components give better sound quality but are more expensive and usually more difficult to fit.

AHhhh thats what it is then just a bit confused there cheers

was looking at these are they any good?

LIGHTNING-BI693
6x9" 3 WAY full range coaxial speakers 225 watts max power, these fantastic speakers are normally �59.99 but MCS bring you them for less than half price just �24.99

or will my 4x40 head unit just blow them quickly?

or these ones worh investing in ?

6" x 9" 3-way speaker
Brown injected-molded polymica cone woofer

to be honest just buy the best you can afford. I've got a set of pioneers now which are great. You will only blow them if you are trying to run them too much on an underpowered amp. So long as there is no distortion in the sound everything should be fine but they are still recommended to be run from an amp

yep amp is best!!! and i'm sure i heard "space for a subwoofer" you will have!! to have an amp with a sub without a doubt.. and as a few have said..underpowering not good at all!! so most headunits amps are a waste of space!!
