SQ coax's for classic car install
I have a 1969 Thunderbird coupe. I am installing a simple SQ system, reusing some old gear, and looking to buy some new or used.
I will reuse my Zapco AG360 (2 channels for the front stage, 2 channels bridged for the sub).
I will reuse my Max Fidelity sub.
I will reuse my Audiocontrol EQL.
I will build and install kick panel pods for 6.5 inch coaxials.
I won't be using a head unit though. I need to retain the stock look of the factory AM mono setup.
I will use my iPod Touch, with an RF remote, all mounted in the trunk with the amp etc.
I am looking for recommendations for what 6.5 coaxials to pursue (likely used with my budget of around $200)?
Thanks!

I have seen some Energy in the price range.
I could get components, but am thinking that coax's (quality ones) might be the right direction for my install in the old car. Either way I have to build kick panels, but for a single round speaker, it will be easier (I think) for my first build of that nature.
Appreciate the ideas guys!

Just as an update to this thread, I did end up going in a different direction for this.
I bought a set of DLS Ref 3.6 3 way components.
I bought some used door parts and kick panels, so I can experiment with placement, and will keep all the stock parts stored safely away while I enjoy much better sound.
I found a great wireless solution to using my iPod Touch as the source - the $99 Audioengine W2. Perfect for this application, and I have been using it at home to get used to it.
Thanks for the suggestions guys, great forum.
