Tom,

I'd like to suggest that you consider adding a modest subwoofer instead of
trying to replace the speakers.  Bass is more a function of power and air
displacement than speaker cone material and I'm afraid you will put a great
deal of time into upgrading speakers with little result. A powered
subwoofer may be both cheaper and simpler to install.  Try finding one that
will fit under the front seat, or in a quarter storage bin.  All you'll
need for wiring is a power lead and a speaker wire tap.  Just a thought....
