I have been out of the game for some time and need a set of 6.5" Component speakers for my weekend/fun car. I have a Alpine CDA103-BT head unit and I think I still have a 4 channel amp (4x75w RMS) kicking around. Since my last set of old school Rockford Fosgates got stolen, I am wanting to keep this fairly cheap, like some Infinity Kappa CS's. Any other brands I should consider? I have a small 8" infinity sub to toss in the hatch off the other 2 channels.

Outside of grabbing the pin outs, you will need a 12v constant and switched source, ground, and at least two speakers. The issue with the 86-91 headunits is the tuners/amps go bad all the time. It may turn on, but you won't get any sound. Plus unless someone used a kit for the Pioneer, be ready for cut wires.

All you should need is a philips head and the little remover tools from pioneer. (Two $1 picks or small screw drivers will do the same thing.) Remove the shift boot, remove the ash try, carefully remove the vents. Remove the two screws under the vents and two screws under the ash tray. This removes the bezel. From here you can see if they used a mounting kit or just shoved it in. All wiring should be visible.

Any recommendations for a aftermarket antenna? My PO removed the wiring and welded the hole up. I bought a cheap one off Amazon and it sounded terrible. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001QYSXAS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

It's the Big D I didn't know I needed in my life. I'm impressed enough I'm going to buy a JP95 and consolidate 3:1 in my trucks system. Now I just need a good head unit with 5 channel outputs in a single DIN form factor.

Alpine and Pioneer were my go-to head units for installs in all my friends cars. I've still got a couple of the classics around, but I just want bluetooth and good sound quality. A decent Pioneer looks to only be around $140. Maybe I'll give it a shot.
