Hi all...i'm new and have a Q...

Same Deal!! I GUTTED the Blose system and added Boston Acoustics amps/speakers/subs and Eclipse AVN6610 HU. With the pac steering wheel interface, I like it even better than OEM as you can make each steering wheel button do whatever you want. ie) I have the SEEK button just circle through my pre-sets.

like mentioned, you will get a much better sound from after market speakers. Stock speakers are much less quality than even the in-expensive aftermarket ones from the same brand. They are just cardboard. With a higher powered amp you are going to blow them. I put Rockford Power series all around. Components in the front, 2 8's under the seat installed in a custom box. They couldn,t get a 10 to fit, as the 8's do a nice job for me, more bass than I need, not trying to have mirrors rattle off. I kept the stock amp hooked up still to the stock Bose sub.. not that it does much maybe just adds a bit more midrange.
