$200 budget for component set

It's for my cousins' 96 GMC regular cab.

I'm suggesting Hertz and CDT because I've heard one and the other is cheap/good the last time I checked. He doesn't have a sub, I don't think he knows what decent bass is. He saw my rear-view flex and was flabbergasted lol. He said "why not just get a Jackhammer sub and a diesel generator then". I spent the next 4 hours explaining car audio.

Has:
Kenwood deck 45w x 4ch
2 6.5" Sony 55W
2 Pioneer 6x9 150Wea

I don't know the hole diameter or anything else until he gets back to me.

I suggested:

Dcon 10" $100
Box $100
300W @ 1ohm amp $100
Component set $200
300W x 4 channel amp $100
Kickpods $100
Deck $100
Wiring $100
Deadening $100

Total $1000.

Which set do I suggest or stay away from?

I'm not going to suggest anything mainstream such as Alpine, JL, or Kicker.
