[QUOTE="Mouse322, post: 8484065, member: 669268"] Hi all! Quick run down, I am Installing 2 pairs of JBL speakers into my 04 Honda Civic. (GX600C front and GX602 rear) And installing a Sony MEX-XB100BT head unit, 100w x 4.

I apologize in advance if I am posting in the wrong area, but please, if there is anything wrong with matching any of these items, or if I'm missing anything for this install let me know! Thank you!!
