im thinking MB quart premium 4 inch components in the doors and rear deck.
MB quart woofers under the seats
MB quart 10 in sub in that box

amps is where i am undecided...
best case scenario would be a 5 channel to power the four component sets and sub and a 2 channel to power the under seat woofers.
or...
a four channel for the 4 components, and a two channel with one channel running the sub, and another channel running the two under seat woofers in parrallel.


we will see...
