Replacing stock speakers with larger ones

I've seen a lot of references to people putting 6.5" speakers in the door openings. What are the different brands that people have used? Has anyone done the same with the rears?<P>I've been happy with my Infinity speakers so I'd love to hear someone say they've put some larger Kappas in. I'm not against making some complicated brackets, I just want to hear some success stories from others, first.<P>Thanks,<BR>Brian

My buddy put Blaupunkt Overdrive 6.5" component set in the doors. Fit nicely. In my civic I put AVI Direct EL component set in. I had to do some modding and make a new mounting baffle out of MDF cause the magnet on these mid bass are big.
