Yes, I am researching all things car audio. I have the JDM pieces ready to go into my XT I am just trying to combat all environmental issues first. I had a very good SQ system in my last vehicle. Xtants from the mid 90's, Boston Pros and 3 10w6 jl's, but the internet was not around when I did that system so I didnt think of all of these problems, solutions, or just things to look at. So now that I am in a perfect place to make sure everything is perfect I am trying to figure out the best way to get every cent spent out of the stereo.
