I'm considering replacing the factory fitted radio/CD player & speakers on
my forthcoming new 2006 Golf GTI.
I am considering one of the Blaupunkt Funline or T-Line radio/CD players
along with the facia bracket and wiring connections.
I also want to replace the door and rear speakers without resorting to
cutting any panel on a brand new car.
Does anyone have a recommendation for speakers of sufficient dimensions
for direct simple replacement?
I can't find any dimensions anywhere for the factory VW speakers fitted as
standard in the 2006 GTI.

It would be worth doing a search and/or posting your questions on the Mk5
ICE forum at http://www.uk-mkivs.net/forum/. I've got a MK5 and you're
right, you need to replace the standard unit ASAP if you want decent sound.
However, general consensus tends to be that the speakers are pretty good.
Why not replace the HU first, see how it sounds and do the speaker upgrade
if necessary?
Cheers
