The Sirius Upgrade works great and turned out pretty neat and out of the way. The Subwoofer and Amp story will be on-going since I work for a place that sells these pkgs, I have already tried 3 different set-ups and will be trying 2 more next week, once more stock comes in. The Visonic is a real inexpensive unit Under $100.00 that sounds really good as long as you do not push it too hard. The Rockford Fosgate Sounds about the same but takes even less abuse, and it cost more? Just goes to show you that you do not need to spend a lot. The best was the SoundStorm so far which was under 200.00 for everything. The sub takes up very little room in the back and kinda looks good sitting there anyway. It can be removed in about 30 seconds if need be. The amp fits easily under the seat. Here are the pics. I can not post pics of the SoundStorm until I re-install it next week.

Nice pics bro!
The Fosgate sub box really sits nicely against the angles. The amp looks good and out of the way. At first take the Sirius radio really looked out of place...but after thinking....it is 100% better there than sticking to your window with a suction cup!!

Thanks for the pics brah!

Great pics!!!

Gotta love that leather!

I agree that the Fosgate sub almost looks like it was built for the car.

Cool!

Very good looking installation. How were your wires run/tapped into the main audio system?

It fits better but does not look as nice in person as the Visonik, also the Rockford does not sound as good as the Visonik which runs a lot less money?

Next week the SoundStorm will be going back in, we are sold out of them until then, but it was ok looking but sounded the best, and for under $200.00 Amp, Subwoofer, Box and full wiring kit. So far my favorite.

Does the sub slide around when making turns?

I was worried about that too, but it does not move and inch? Just stays there. Of course as will most subs some things back there seem to rattle if I get too loud.

You can not see it now, but there is a volume control right by the base of the drivers seat so you just reach down and can adjust the sub volume. I have noticed a lot of amps do not have this feature and I do not know how you could be without it?
