So if you have noticed the price is around 600$, and there is no speaker wire or wiring there, thats ok cause I can get that later, but I wasn't sure if I am getting my moneys worth or maybe I have a piece that wont give my system all its power.

Thanks guys, if you can help me that would be great. I have 0 experience with car audio.

Tips and help would be great!

well i have no experience with boss decks but i did find like 10 better prices on that deck with a quick google search. from what i've learned you get what you pay for and i've seen better specs on an 80 dollar clarion deck (sound wise anyways, not sure if you're actually planning on using the video options) just throwing it out there

okay this is what your car has room for from the factory

Front speakers
Front Door: 6-3/4"

Far rear speakers
Rear Seat Side Panels: 6x9"

If it was my money this is how i would spend it.

Deck - Alpine CDE-9881 CD Players,MP3 CD Player


front doors - Phoenix Gold RSd6.5 Car Speakers

Sub amp-MTX XThunder 600XD Amp: Mono


sub (as in one) - Cerwin Vega VMAX 12.4 Subwoofers

Total price = $559.90 not including tax and shipping.

but i could do this a hundred times over.... on that one site.... forget about the rears... run the fronts off the deck.... This would make what you had picked sound like a garbage can rolling down a tin hill... you are far better off having a few really good things then a bunch of over rated junk and just have a box built for the sub i can tell you this sub loves a 2.15 slot ported box... i know i used to have one and it was great

or if you have brands you like more then others i could build by brand.
