i usually put on the bar indicator on dash.

Exactly - on an '02, you can use the OEM wiring, you just need to replace speakers, amp and head unit. I did it and the sound is incredible. I don't use my stereo all the time, but when I do it's fantastic....it's takes a little time for a full swap, but it's a simple conversion process. I used the OEM subwoofer enclosure and just replaced the OEM sub speakers with upgraded units. I mounted the amp and crossovers in the trunk and used a carpeted cover to regain good use of the trunk - lost about 4" of depth. Here are some ideas.....

I'm really happy with my aftermarket system. I just replaced everything and the relocation of the A/C and pocket simply snapped right in. My first upgrade on the car.

Here is an idea to get big bass if you want like I do! Easy with old bose box reported and raised in the center with fiberglass and a reverse mounted high power 10" Alpine R series sub.


Bass is deep and can handle anything you throw at it. Just lifts out with the 2 seat clip studs removed.

No problem seeing out the back. I get lots of compliments on the sound. It can pound if you want it to.

The huge sub has to angle back a bit to allow enough air space and not to block your vision.
