Hi, I have been compiling a shopping cart for about 3 months now. I think i have everything i need i just want to be sure. I plan on doing the head unit, Coax, Subs, the big 3, and a second battery. Im just looking for advice if im misshing anything or if i should do things differentley. Also i have a 2004 VW Jetta which are notorious for rattle so im not looking for carzy bass just nice clear hits thats why im not using the subs to there full potential.

Here is what i have in the shopping cart so far:

Coaxs: Alpine SPR-60 x2

Subwoofers: Alpine SWR-12D2 12 x2

Optima Batteries 8050-160 D31T YellowTop Dual Purpose Battery

Battery holder to mount in trunk

Alpine Bass adjustment knob

The dash had to come completely apart to get the deckin and run the power wire for the amp. That goes under the drivers wayyyy up under the dash. Was really hard to find it. But we googled it and found the solution Also I can help you pick out and even sell you some nice equipment. And yes components instead of coaxes
