did you want to run the speaks off the head unit or run a seperate amp?

Yes,even got many options.You can call merlin at saint charles isuzu at 6364414481.Ask for merlin & tell him about you as a new VX member,also PM moncha to address you where is the .ZIP file located here in the board.Ebay.com is another option.
Crutchfield.com is one of the best online audio shops,check them & call them for info about the VX audio system.
beside that many of us will drop a quote for you to ease the job.
Dakar was just the begining.
Keep in mind that the stock speakers output is 120 watts each.so you must go no furter that 100 watts on the head unit & amps if you go that far to be in the "safe zone" the last thing you want is blown rear speaker,man to get there & have that speaker replace is annoying
i will give that crutchfield company a call tommorrow as well.

now the 6.5s are a 3way and the 4s are a 2 way... do head units account for both if i used these two in a set up? i know nothing about stereos
I've been buying car stereo gear from Crutchfield for years, and you can't beat the support. If you buy the head unit and speakers from them, they include all the brackets, stock wiring harness connectors, and instructions for installation specific to your vehicle (even the VX!). Also, for about $20, they have a single DIN storage compartment to replace the stock CD changer. I've got four 6 1/2" Infinity shallow mount speakers and a Pioneer I-Pod controlling head unit, and the installation was pretty easy. I also use amps and subs, but a good head unit will drive those speakers well by itself.
Time depends on how well you handle the situation,it took me like 45 minutes to make sure that i did all that i had to do without rushing,at time i just get out the car & dink some soda,chat with the neighbor,etc,you got to be analitical handling this kind of stuff.If you speed up you can regret it,i don't know how the weather's moving around by you,but i'll likely do that on a sunny nice looking day,no chances of rain rushing you down & all tolls in hand.
