I thought about replacing my subs, till I replaced the radio. What a huge difference!
I put in an Eonon Android radio, and it woke the whole system up. Bass is cleaner,
strong, deep, and vibratious... I could probably put better ones in for less distortion,
but man, what a difference...
I will need to replace the 6x8s, that's for sure...

I searched this thread and maybe I missed it....but I just want to swap out the blown right hand door subwoofer and was told the compC 8" kicker would be a direct replace and all I had to do was pull the grill off, remove the 8 or so bolts and swap( May have to cut connector and wire into new speakers posts) ….however, I cn't seem to get the old one out after all the bolts (screws) are out. Were they lying and you have to remove the door panel to replace? It really doesn't look like it but it doesn't seem to want to come out.....
Also, ,if that was a lie, is the direct replace for the kicker compC a lie too?

Wiring?
Factory Door Sub Specs - 1.2 Ohm 60w x 2 (Doesnt say max or RMS).
From that, you can tell it drains as much power from the factory amps to power it. Also, they are made out of paper so ya, they are junk. The factory cover is attatched with glue and the speaker with screws.
Picture of the factory enclosure and why the Pioneer Premiers dont fit or many other ones (top left):
Factory Amp Specs - unknown (left inside) too much of a hassle to remove. Disconnected them and ran a aftermarket amp.
Picture that shows the custom ring (extension) needed to fit 8 inch Pioneer Premier Shallow Mount Speakers inside. They extend out about a 1inch more than factory. It is custom made out of wood:
Heres the finished install (also Dynamated most of the door):
I hope this helps you.
