Kicker 6.5's in front, kicker 6.5 coax in rear just for fill, made plates to mount them and they are awesome, use a kicker 600.5 amp for front/rear/door subs, and kicker 1000.1 for trunk subs.

Did you have to do any trimming or cutting to get the 8" Kicker door subs to fit?

Yes it was very little, top corners where the wire comes in had to be trimmed out and then we re- fiberglassed the small area, took about an hour per door. But well worth it !! Mean mid-Bass :-)

Head unit, amps all 4 speakers, subs is all i have, but not 100% certain but one of the subs incurred an puncture in the surround. If you want it let me know, never going back in. And have factory door sub grilles also. Wouldnt take much to get it at all.

FIRST: Looks great, I'm sure it sounds amazing!

Now looking for advice. I've replaced my front and rear speakers with TS-D6802R. Significant improvement. I would like a little more base, but as an OLD White Guy my choice of music tends towards classic rock so major league base thumping to rap isn't going to happen in my car. I would lean towards clean quality sound with better base than stock.

Do you think that the 8" Kicker Solo Classic 09S8C4 would be an improvement that I can enjoy. What would you suggest as a power source.

The solo classics would be excellent for what you are wanting, and to keep it clean and as non distoted as possible i would say you could do between 300-500 rms per pair, and be very satisfied, they are 300 rms each so id just keep it a little below for clarity !!
