What to check before you buy these Focal speakers
These Focal ICU-165 speakers are 6.5-inch coaxials with a mounting depth and cutout that must match your vehicle's door or rear deck. We'd consider measuring your factory speaker location first, because a 6.5-inch nominal size does not guarantee a drop-in fit across all cars.
The package includes two speakers, so you can upgrade one pair of locations. If your car uses separate tweeters and midbass drivers from the factory, these coaxials may not align with the existing wiring or mounting points.

What it will not do
These speakers reproduce sound, but they will not fix a failing amplifier or add power to your system. With 70W RMS and 140W max ratings, they need an amplifier or head unit that can deliver clean power within that range.
The sensitivity is 93 dB, which means they can play loudly with modest power, but they still require an appropriate signal source and installation. They are not a replacement for a blown factory amp or a damaged head unit.
Speakers do not repair or replace a faulty amplifier, head unit or wiring.
Power handling is 70W RMS and 140W max, so your amp or head unit must supply clean power in that range.
Sensitivity of 93 dB means they can play loudly with modest power, but they still need a working signal source.

At $135.62, these Focal ICU-165 speakers sit $14.13 under the typical price over the last 90 days of $149.75. That works out to about 9% below that typical rate.
This is not a record-low price, so the discount is modest. If you need speakers now and the fitment checks out, the current price is reasonable compared with recent months.
Power and mounting checks for your build
You will need to confirm that your amplifier or head unit can supply power within the 70W RMS rating. Underpowering them can lead to distortion, while overpowering them risks damage.
Check the mounting depth and cutout diameter against your vehicle's factory speaker locations. The 6.5-inch size is common, but depth and screw hole patterns vary. Also verify the impedance and wiring connections match your existing setup.
Who should choose these speakers
Choose these if you want a coaxial pair with an inverted dome tweeter and your car accepts a 6.5-inch speaker with the right depth and mounting pattern. They suit buyers who already have an amplifier or head unit that can deliver clean power in the 70W RMS range.
Skip them if you need separate component speakers, if your factory locations require a different size, or if you are not ready to check power and mounting compatibility. The price is fair but not a blowout, so fitment should drive your decision.
