    Was considering upgrading the 4 speakers in the van (08 renault trafic) to vibe units.

    Now id normally change the headunit first but the steering wheel interface is very good in the van and I dont want to loose it.

    Is it pointless doing speakers without the headunit? Just want better quality. Not huge noise

    In my personal opinion, most vibe speakers work better with an amp. Depending on what size speaker you are looking at, your original headunit may not have the power to drive them properly.

    Ok buy either 2 or the set with 4 and 1 amp put the two in the door and 2 behind you wire them to the amp and use the amp to control sound you pay for what you get iv seen aldi head units in show cars with good sound

    In my opinion a set of cheap JBL's would be better than Vibes.
