There is a good chance that you'll lose a lot of bass if you swap out the speakers with out an external amp. Keep in mind, even if you get high quality speakers, they will still be horribly under powered. This was the case with my old car ('99 GSR), until I amped it. I can also tell you that any head unit you get will be able to receive the same reception as stock and there are ways to keep the audio controls as well. I know GofastLab has an adapter that installs into the stereo harness for $90. There are also other products that work in different ways.
