11 am or noon would have to be a weekend, or July 5th I am off from work and going to the pool room :) Next Sat. the 25th could be good too.

I know Plays. Never went there myself for the plays but circumvented Route 1 through the park many, many times (with no headlights at night, as a youngster too :D )

Problem is, this is my work schedule:

Monday to Friday: 4PM to Midnight
Saturday and Sunday: 1PM to whenever

Monday to Friday Show nights: 6PM to Midnight, usually
Saturday and Sunday Show Nights: 4PM to Midnight, usually.

This is the entire summer. My only day off is July 4th. I don't have sick days (it's theater, sick days don't happen).

Well I've decided (for now) to go with these:

Rockford Fosgate T152C 2-way 5-1/4" Front Door Speakers
http://www.cardomain.com/sku/ROCT152C

Sony XS-V6941H 4-way 6"x9" Rear Deck Speakers
http://www.crutchfield.com/S-IRJqW860HAS/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=52300&I=158XSV6941

Anyone have any experience with these? I'm going to purchase them from Best Buy so that I know I can return them in 30 days if I don't like them or they don't fit.

*cough*
I don't know those speakers specifically, but any upgrade from factory should be a nice improvement in sound and volume, based on my past experiences.

Are you planning to install the stuff yourself? Still considering an amp? If you are, it will be Much easier to do it all at once, as the amp part will require taking apart a bunch of the car, including running wires to the speakers... It can be fun too.
