Especially with ability to take top & doors off, you need power.

I’m still waiting on delivery, but onceI get it, will be doing

Audiocontrol DM-608 processor so I can time align & equalize dash & kicks separately.

audiocontrol 6x100 for front & rear speakers.

probably around 800 for sub.

haven’t made up mind on speakers yet, but plan to run small components in dash & 6.5 in kick as a 3 way set.

I had my speakers all swapped out to JL Audio C1's. There's two 4 inch in the dash and two in the rear roll bar. And two 6.5" in the kicker panels by your feet. I had them all swapped out and a Kenwood pa-w801b 8 powered subwoofer installed in the cargo area. It's a powered sub so you don't require an amp as well and save space. It's sturdy so you can stack anything on it or even stand on it. The sound quality difference is absolutely amazing now. I had the speakers for about a week before I had the sub installed, and the sub really brings it all together.

Keep in mind these prices are in Canadian dollars:
4 - JL Audio C1 4" speakers - $230
2 - JL Audio C1 6.5" speakers - $180
1 - Kenwood pa-w801b subwoofer - $400
What did they have to do to get the C1 6.5” speakers to fit the kick panels? Crutchfield says the don’t fit……
