Short, sweet and to the point.....
Sorry, just couldn't resist.....
If there is a question about adding or changing something in your vehicle at the end of the story, the more info (model numbers, set-up etc.) you put in the story the easier it will be to give you a better answer......
Lurk no more, leap right in there and welcome to the board......

lol, sorry, full post below
looking to put together a high quality sound system for my 300m, my only experience with car audio was a bad one, paid about $1500 for a bunch of crap that barely sounded better than my stock system, this was about 15 years ago at Art of Sound on Dundas in Mississauga
since then I've been into home gear and ignored car audio but I want back in,
my home stuff has included everything from pro audio gear to audiophile type gear to custom built DIY stuff
I'm really bad with my hands, can't even put together an Ikea coffee table but I'm gonna tackle the install myself,
to begin with, I'm looking at a new deck, pair of fronts, 2 channel amp, sub amp, and sub/box, will probably deaden the trunk also
my initial hurdle seems to be with sub selection, I'm very skeptical of both the prefabricated boxes out there as well as the so called custom jobs done by most shops, i currently own a JL Audio Fathom and that is the kind of build quality I'm looking for, in other words, tank like construction
I've narrowed i down to either a Fosgate or JL Audio pre loaded enclosure

mobile.jlaudio.com/products_enclosures.php?menu=5&prod_id=304
I'm really looking for any insight into either of these two products so any input would be much appreciated
