Speaker upgrade purchase/install?

Hello socal,

I'll be visiting s. Orange Co. (Laguna Hills/Irvine...) for a few days and thinking about upgrading my stock wrx speakers while there. Would like recommendations for good car audio store that knows Subarus and sells and installs.
Thanks and Happy Motoring

Best Buy has $40 installs on all 4 speakers.

What are you looking for?

I don't know if i would trust best buy. Try http://www.creative-motorsports.com/

Find out prices. If too expensive, buy elsewhere, but have them install it. They do a top notch job.

if you're just plugging in new speakers, save yourself money and do it yourself. Remove the door card, unscrew the stock speaker, slide plug off, slide plug onto new speaker, screw new speaker on, replace door card, take a nap

Thanks for the info - as I understand it, the limited depth in the Impreza doors makes speaker selection and install critical, so I'm looking for knowledgeable shops.

I'll check with Creative Mtrspts - not much on the website.
