Default Replacing speakers + questions

My stock speaker on the right passenger side has been having weird rattling issues lately....so I opened everything up a few mins ago, and yep...the noise is only coming from the speaker itself.

Can anyone recommend a set to replace the stock? I'm not looking for anything pricey, just something that sounds as good as the stock.

Also, would this be a easy install? As in just removing the stock wire currently plugged in to the stock speaker?

The best deal out there (right now). Sound great on an OEM HU, will sound great if you amp them down the line.

Looks like a good deal, I don't know too much about how to connect this. Is it as simple as disconnecting the stock and plugging it into the new set?

eh not so much. If you are gonna get a component set like is shown above you will have to do a lot of cutting and adding speaker wire. You will use the stock speaker wire as the input to the crossover, then run speaker wire from the crossover to the woofer, then wire from the crossover to the tweeter. IF you get a coaxial you can buy a speaker plug for the stock speaker plus and then it would be a simple swap.

if its rattling it could be something that its vibrating against. maybe something loose or some small debris in or around the speaker. is there a hole in the speaker? possibly blown?
