I replaced the rear and the door speakers on my car. The rears seemed pointless to upgrade after-the-fact because the sound quality barely changed, and didn't really sound 'better'. Since most of the sound comes from the doors, I replaced those with hesitation. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the speakers I chose had more bass response and MUCH more treble response from the RAZ head unit.
The dash speakers are probably not worth changing. They do a decent job as-is. The RAZ head unit really can put out quality audio, but the Mopar speakers held it back.
I bought the OEM Subwoofer for the 2002 model year, which was tough to find. My dealership was able to get one after a lengthy search. (The 2001 and 2002 differ in that the wiring harness is updated to use the '02 radio without splicing.) The OEM sub is extremely potent for being an 8". I actually have to keep the bass level slider at the middle position...at the MOST. Some CD's will cause me to push the bass control all the way down.
The Mopar sub is expensive, but it's truly hidden away. You would need a T-35 (?) Torx bit to remove your rear seat belt, but that's the only major surgery.
