    After doing a bit of research, here's the list of components I plan to order today or tomorrow:

    Sub: JL Audio 8W7-3 (3 ohm) or 8w3v3-4 (4 ohm)
    Sound Processor: JL Cleansweep or Alpine PXE-H650
    Amp: Alpine PDX-5 5 channel amp 75x4 rms + 300 rms (4 ohms)
    Front speakers: Boston Acoustic Pro60 model
    Rear: Boston Acoustic SX60

    Oh, and would think best place to put the amp and eq are in the trunk space area. I thought perhaps they'd fit under the front passenger seat because the the alpine amp is very small...but do not know yet.

    Comments of course are appreciated. Thanks!

    I've deferred on the equalization and extra amp, but can heartily endorse the Boston Acoustics SX60s! They sound much better than stock!!
