4. 2 x 6x9's speakers for the rear
5. 2 x 6.5" speakers for the front

1) That would be illegal.

2) through 7) What's your budget?

1. Thanks but I don't intend to watch it while I am driving, it would be for a passenger.

I don't really know what my budget is. I guess $1,500 + or -.

Doesn't matter who watches it, it would still be illegal.

Do you have some recommendations for parts?

I suggest you go shopping. No one can tell you what you will like or dislike, it is all up to your ears. With a $1500 budget you are in the mid-range of quality, so avoid bargain basement brands like Dual, Pyramid, MA Audio, Power Acoustic, Legacy, etc. Look for good name-brand gear like Alpine, Eclipse, etc. Avoid the big-name over-rated crap like Audiobahn, Volfenhag, etc. Go visit your local shops and take along a CD of your favorite music and buy what you like best.
