Need parts not sure where to turn.

Need parts not sure where to turn.
I am in need of 6.5" replacement speakers for my 2001 Dodge Durango. I replaced the rear door speakers with aftermarkets and they sound horrible compared to the original speakers. I would like to just get some off of a used Durango somewhere but no salvage yard here has any right now....
Anyone on here have some they are willing to part with ? Also, The door mounted (tweeter speakers) say infinity on them. So I guess it is in an infinity system. On one of the speakers I pulled out it did say infinity on them. They are all 4 identical.
Thanks

RE: Need parts not sure where to turn.
If the tweeter cover says Infinity, then it certainly is a factory Infinity system all the way around (unless you bought it pre-owned and the previous owner changed out components).
I accidentally blew out my front passenger 6.5" Infinity a few months back. Original replacements are available through Dodge/Chrysler, for about 100 bucks or so. I didn't replace it yet, and I'm not complaining about not having it in there at the moment. I'm just trying to be careful about usage and power, as the system is a little unbalanced because of the lack of a speaker in the door.
After looking at how the speaker failed and consulting with an audio expert, I think the speaker can just be repaired and re-installed. I figured it would be worth a shot before spending the 100 bucks or so to replace the thing with a brand new one from Chrysler.

RE: Need parts not sure where to turn.
I have not read the FAQ yet .. looks like the surround has just seperated from the metal housing. I think I did buy 4 ohm speakers ... 2ohm speakers are hard to find around here unless you order them ...
I was really hoping somone on here would have a set they would sell me....
Thanks I will start looking in the FAQ section

RE: Need parts not sure where to turn.
When you find the speaker section in the top Q&A in the faq section, I have even uploaded pics on how to repair your oem speakers using the kit you can buy from
http://www.simplyspeakers.com
I just went to the site to see how much and it cost $28 per pair for the foam surrounds.
Procedure to repair the speakers is about 30 minutes to an hour for the first time speaker and then about 20-30 minutes for each additional speaker after you get the hang of it. I let the speakers set upside down overnight to make sure the glue dries. And so far, the OEM speakers work like knew.
Also, it does not hurt if you used 4 ohm speakers on a 2 ohm setup. You cannot go the other way around by using 2 ohm speakers on a 4 ohm setup unless you can verify the amplifier can handle the lower ohm load.
