try ebay there are companies that sell the full kit and bits , i paid about 60£ to do all of them , you can get decent makes on there too , they come with an adaptor kit too which you may or may not need , second option take door card off and go to halfords or the like and see what will fit , ebay option being quicker and easier

that's not a bad bit of grunt for a corsa , i'm on pistonheads hsv site , the monaro is a 5.7 with lots done , as soon as the guy started it i had to buy it , it's the loudest i heard a car , the maloo was a part race spec car with a roll cage and fire extinguisher so that's rare too flat out it will hit 190 mph

i'm tempted but it's very expensive around 8.5 k , it becomes less drive able , and over a 1 mile run there's only 10 to 20 mph in it between na and supercharged , i would do it for the whine of a supercharger , a club member is running 1200 bhp

thunder road once in the maloo , 155 mph in 1 mile , the supercharged were hitting max 176 mph , the turbo if you can do it yourself works but most twin turbo if they do , i believe the supercharger is more common route and cheaper , you do get to the point where too much power makes it more difficult to drive i know a terrible comment to make too much power lol , there was a 7.4 litre with loads of mods and na for sale it was as quick as the sc cars

If you keep the stock HU, changing speakers will make very little difference.

If it is still the stock HU, changing the speakers will make little to no difference. The stock HUs are woefully under-powered - they can't even drive the stock speakers properly.

A different HU with a semi-decent internal amp will have far more of an effect with stock speakers, than throwing even £5k of Morel speakers in the car with the stock HU.

IMO

a sensible not overly loud set up , halfords were doing a double din unit with blue tooth 55 watt for 105£ , the speakers some times get water in then so changing then can improve but even better as above changing the head unit and speakers
