Yep, right here. Just did two for the front. Look on Ebay, you can get a better deal than $87/pair shipped. IIRC, I got mine for $70/a pair, shipped and this was like 2.5 years ago. You have to be patient, I waited on mine for about 3 months. No need for anything, mine dropped right in.

The Kappas are great, the selling point to me was its clarity. Don't get me wrong, they hit hard, but I'm more of an sq guy. Probably, why I never needed to have a sub w/the kappas. On a side note, when my mother's (she has a contour, as well) speakers started crapping out, I put some cheapo 5x7 pioneers in there. I found them on clearance at Best Buy for $20. I have to say, I'm pretty impressed w/them for being so cheap. IMO, best bang for the buck. So you may want to look into that route, if you want to save yourself some dough. I pointed this out b/c you mentioned that you kept the stock speakers in your car for 6/7 yrs which is pretty impressive! So I'm not really sure the kappas will curtail to your needs. Anyways, both are exceptional products from my experience.

BTW, you were running a 10" sub on the stock equipment??? Wow, that must have been interesting!
