Don't remember the sizes, but I'd definitely reccomend anything from Polk Audio. They are consistantly rated in the top 5 best car speaker systems, but for some reason are not as well known as one might hope.

Their $150/pair sets are comparable to $300/pair Blaupunkts in every car stereo review I've found so far (As long as you get the two-peice, which you need for your Audi anyway).

Good luck!

I don't believe you about fitting 5.25" speakers in the front... The back I'd believe.

Default Do you want real speakers?

I did the same sizes but used Infinity Kappas. Much fuller sound than before. =)
