If you know anything about how to install car radios, it is not hard at all. Mostly just know the purpose of each of the wires to the radio, for about a $100 you can just pick up a new radio and install it yourself.
You just have to make sure that the speakers you currently have can handle the watts of the new radio, but if you get a cheaper one I think they generally won't have as high of watts as some of the more expensive ones. Also if you wanted you can get a new radio and four new speakers (or two if you do not care about the fronts too much) and install all these.

I have played around with the radios and speakers a little, both factory and not factory. And even changing the back two speakers in an all factory set up will increase how it sounds and i think it also makes it slightly louder or at least in my case it did.

It is just dependent on how much you want to spend and your budget, but $100 is due able just for a new radio if you are ok with doing the work
