Yeah, I've got a 10" Focal in the Mazda, very good for the money, only £80.
I personally wouldn't bother with a kit or the Vibe stuff. Spend as much as you can and go with a decent brand. Personally, I run an Alpine head unit, Focal components up front, standard speakers in the back, 2 x JL audio amps and a JL audio sub. Sound quality is excellent, as Niall said I highly recommend Focal components. My JL sub is a lot better than my Focal, but it was about 3 times as much...
It comes down to what you want really. If you just want decent SQ, go for Focal fronts, decent 4 channel amp to run the fronts and then a sub.
What head unit do you have? As that will also make a difference.
The other thing to note is use decent wire, go better than you need to. Make sure the RCAs are run the opposite side to the power wire. It'd also be a good idea to get some Silent Coat or similar to cover the doors behind and around the speakers.
