I replaced my speakers right after I bought my YARIS. The stock speakers are total CRAP. Flimsy paper cone, no tweeter, and tiny motor/magnet.

I didn't want to spend alot of money, or install an amp, so I needed some decent speakers that would work with the factory head unit. ( low power )

I went with four new Pioneer TS-G1642R.
They were on-sale at BestBuy for $38 a pair.

Took me about 4 hours to install them. I used a hacksaw blade and cutout the centers of the factory speakers. The rears fit good, but I had to use a Dremel tool and grind away some of the outer edge on the front ones. I also used the Dremel tool to clearance the panels a little bit before reinstalling them.

They sound much better than stock, cleaner sound with crisp highs.
