    Ok i am getting really anxious to get this system in the dodge and the dam amp aint here yet!

    Ok, well i am lookin for subs again not really sure if i wanna use some 12s or 10s.
    I was thinkin about these coustic 10's i would get two and build the biggest box possible.
    Parts Express:Coustic US-CX10-04 10" Subwoofer
    or maybe one twelve?

    But the 2 10s will have more cone area, correct?
    Or should i just use the 2 ehqs subs i have for now and buy some alpine door speakers?
    Ugh, i am so confused right now. lol

    I'd stick with the EHQS subs you have now...I used to be all about bass but once you hear a good front stage you'll want it in your vehicle. I'd buy some sound dampening mat. It will greatly improve the sound from the door speakers

    no...its peel and seal window flashing.

    it works...but doesn't last more than a few years

    I only used it because i wanted to try it...you can use it but it will start to fail after 4-5 years

    well what is the weather like where you like.

    The stuff I used is called Peel N Seal

    6"x25' Roll Self-Stick Aluminum Faced

    The stuff you linked to will work also...I'd use that over the sound dampening material and on the backside of panels

    you can take your chances with peel n seal.

    It works...just really really hot weather over and over will cause it to fail and melt

    motor size doesn't have much to do with performance.

    That brand is a flea market brand like pyle and crap like that...don't even pay it any attention.

    look SUPER cheap...even more cheap than that cheap flea market crap with 18 "tweeters"

    There isn't even a product description or specs on it

    what do you expect for some 25 dollar a pair of speakers
