i bought a new passat TDI and am giving my sedan to my mom, i would like to reinstall the factory radio and replace the front and rear speakers with aftermarket ones that will sound good with the factory radio. i have three questions.

1. i lost one of the metal mounting brackets for the radio( left side) where can i get one?

2. what aftermarket front and rears will sound good with the factory head unit

3. how do i improve FM reception and quality?

thanks and this site has been great!

Your asking way to much from the stock deck, get an after market unit and mounting kit.
The after market unit will wake the stock speakers right up and sound lot better also keep in mind that stock has very little power out put and will not handle after market speakers to we'll.
I run a deck with stock front and 8 inch bazooka in the back all cost me 260 tax in. That includes mounting kit and cables sub and all....on sale from bestbuy.
Pioneer deck too with USB, mp3 remote was 86$ on sale lol with Bluetooth think extra 20$
Anyhow just my 2 cents on that lol
