Woofers Etc is a good place...

t10001BD

I only found the fosgate on there, Hifonics are good amps but the fosgate one would be better, IMO.

Looks like those 2 10's are workin' for ya haha. Good stuff. I'm gonna read up on the dynamats when I get a chance because if it improves the quality I'm down to get one. How much did you all pay for your dynamats?

Damn that sounds like a nice setup.. How do you like the double din? What are your RMS ratings? (Amp / Subs)

Blaupunkt head unit, 8" 200 watt Bazooka Tube, front Blaupunkt speakers
Pros: Good budget system, nice full range of sound, easy install, easy removal for when you trade, it makes the car vibrate lol
Cons:will turn heads but wont win any contests, struggles on the extreme lows...that's about it lol maybe should have gotten a 10" or 12" for that "feel it in you chest" bass

Single it's the Monterrey MP35,

I can get a better pic if you want
Bazooka tube

fronts

I put that foam to shed water away from the speakers since I lost 2 OEM ones from water. Like I said, on the days I have it turned up and bumping it'll grab the attention of people walking, and my mom knows when I get home before I get home, but it wont get you first place at the car show.

Sounds good man! I'd really appreciate that.. I'm stuck between choosing single or double din.

I don't like how you can't just take the face plate off of the double dins like you can with the single dins..
