I've honestly no idea.
I've got the standard OE speaker system that I'm aware of and fitted the RNS-510 myself.
I think there's 8?...
Gti Jal:
You can get some 6.5" components off of the bay for a few sheckles. Fitting them is 2 hours.

Just fitted some Focal Polyglass 165 VR3's in the front doors of my Golf. Has made a massive difference to the sound (and all this is just off a standard MFD2 with no amp !)
Real good door thumping bass now.
Hurdy:
I'm running Hertz speakers all round.
3 way comps up front, 2 way coax in the rear and a 10" sub in the wheel arch. The fronts and sub are powered by an Audison 4 way amp.
The sound is excellent and I can't think where I'd need any more bass. :happy2:
The stock system has 8 speakers and does without the tweeters up front. To make it a little easier on yourself (and a little cheaper) you could go for a 2 way component system up front instead.

So you just replaced the speakers then? Anything else involved as I fancy upgrading mine but not sure I want to go to the hassle of installing an amp, I'm going to be taking my door panels off soon anyway, so can do two jobs at once :happy2:
