No, I totally understand.
But to get anything much more satisfactory than stock, he is going to have to buy a HU for at least 200, then 4 speakers all around and an amp to power them. Let him know if he decides to power the speakers off HU power not to expect much at all.
Or he could just create a great front stage like I did and ditch the rear speakers ( I hate rear fill, sounds way unnatural to me). He can do this by getting a component set up front and a good amp to power them. Either way, it is going to be around the same cost.
Just let him know these are his options and if he doesn't like it... well, oh well. Haha.
Let us know where he wants to go from here.

ive always used pioneer head units and I love them. i never liked the looks of alpine.... spend about 200 bucks on a head unit or ull be sorry when u blow speakers and what not. most speakers blow because of distortion inherent in a bad head unit

Haha yeah it is decent. The only thing about the new pioneers is that the RCA grounds suck and it is extremely easy to blow the internal fuses for them thus producing alt. whine. So Far so good for me though.
