Oh crap, now you tell me.   :lol:

It looks good to me. Better than the original for sure, and it can handle more power. Are you planning an after-market amp going to this, or no?

I have had one in the car for 4 years now.  Sounds good with other speakers. I also have 6x9's in the rear and tweeters on the A pillars.  If you are just using it solo you would not get much bass out of it.
