u can run the wiring for the amp so when the sub comes all ud need is a box and speaker wires. just make sure you dont hook up speaker wires to the amp without the sub

oh hey can u do a quick edit on the FAQ thread for me? i was going to rewrite the whole thing but im lazy so **** it

for question 7 can u change the line that says

Metra = 70-2202

to

Metra = 70-2104 (70-2202 should work as well but the 2104 is the best option)

they are all components right? highs are out the tweeters and mids out the speakers? i'm not completely new but i wanna be positive here. you recommend an amp for all mids/highs? my mids and highs are still powered off the head unit. though I could have left the factory amp in line instead.

or are my 2 way coaxials (kicker ds) speakers fine? in your opinion anyway.
