They have good power outputs but they are cheap and unbranded what do you guys think?

Hhhmm look a little cheap & nasty to me. I wouldn't bother. They don't even give you an RMS value

Something like
this will do the job. Cost inc postage will be just over 40 quid, but will be worth paying for a quality component item, not just a nameless bog standard item!

Those speakers would be fine as a direct swap, the set i linked you to would be more of an upgrade. Only a tenner difference!
What sort of cash do you want to spend on the amp?
Cheapest on
CAD.
Or try for a bargain on ebay!

Around 50-60 on a amp maybe i know that's budget but it's really just for 6x9's as rumour has it they sound poor from head unit lol.
I was looking at this :

Looks fine for the money, will drive a set of 6x9's no probs.
I've got a Pioneer DEH-P6000, standard front speakers (
), & JBL 6.5" component rears running off a Rockford Fosgate Punch 100 amp. And the clarity & sound is really good. Spend on quality items & it'll pay dividends in the long run! I've had the Punch 100 amp for years & moves from car to car with me, same went for my previous Kenwood unit, only upgraded that due to wanting an MP3/USB input!

Will these be a straight swap for the door woofers? and go staight into the original slots? and use all the original plugs?

Yes and Yes, you'll have to buy different conecntors though (couple of quid from any motor shop e.g Motorworld/Halfords)
