Default 850 Dashboard speakers / tweeters 6849410

Hi all.
As seems common, my dashboard speakers (tweeters, part no 6849410) are in a pretty sad state - one isn't working barely at all.
I expected to be able to find some second hand on eBay - but it appears not.
So I'm on the warpath to see if I can just buy some speakers themselves and swap them into the mounting.
Can anyone offer any advice at all?
I think they look like 2 inch (I think you measure the cone diameter??)
But what power (watts) do they need to be (if too low, I assume they will blow, vibrate, sound horrid!)
And what resistance are they - its 4 ohm or 8 ohm I presume?

Any advice welcome.

Ive found these that look promising - if 10W is enough and 8Ω ohms

Hi rowleray, did you get the speakers in your link. 8Ω would be right not too sure about the W. I have recently fitted a new headunit and looking to upgrade the speakers.

Hi
I've shelved doing anything for now, in the absence of anyone responding with any advice (apart from you!).
It sounds like you think the 8ohm is correct at least.
