What focals did you go with? I'm sort of in the same mind as you. Have an '80 targa and planning on throwing the Blaupunkt headunit in. I don't really want to add a separate amp, even though I know I'm giving up a little bit by doing so. I just want to sort of refresh what's in the car right now. I wasn't even planning on replacing the rear deck speakers.

I just want some solid quality plug-and-play speakers for the doors (something I don't have to cut them apart to put in) and the Blaupunkt head unit.

If it were a coupe, I might be a bit more interested in actually making it sound amazing, but since it's a targa and the wind noise + heat exchangers and exhaust tend to add a lot of road noise anyway, having a perfect setup seems over the top.
