Right back seat speaker went out.

Yep, the low frequency one to the supposed to be awesome monsoon system. All I heard from it was an annoying rattling so I took it out. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement?

Manufacture itself, but pay a hefty price or look for a used one on here from people parting out there system because they don't like it.

Could I just install aftermarket speakers to replace the factory ones?

Yes, you could. There would be a small problem though. The setup in your car is running at 2 ohms. Nearly all aftermarket speakers are 4 ohms. If you do decide to replace the speakers, you're best bet would be to get a different amp too.

What would the difference be in sound if I didn't replace the amp?

The reason why i'm asking is because I really don't want to cough up alot of $$, for another amp and i'd rather not buy more factory speakers.

It would have zero bass. We did that to my friends Camaro because he did not know if he had Monsoon or not. So we sniped the wires put them on and sounded like crap. If I were you I would wait to save some cash and just switch out the whole system when you have a chance. Or just have little to no bass at all.
