The time has come (finally) to upgrade my car speakers.  My car, which you guys probably know by heart, is an 87 Town Car with 3.5" in the dash, 6.5" in the doors, and 6x9" in the back.
Option one: Ditch the dash speakers and put components in the doors
Option two: Get coax all around
Now to throw in the wild card...  Since my HU is pusing 4 speakers in the front rather than 2, each one is only getting half the wattage of the signal.  My HU is 24wpc rms, so each of the 3.5 & 6.5 speaks is only getting 12w.  Is it worth hooking them up to my amp?  It is 100wpc rms which would be 50 per speak.

How loud do you want it to be?
