both are good subs... the Kappa's are widely known to have reliability issues.. so the JL would be better IMO

I would love some tweeter pods. I was going to mount mine there but way too much work for a newbie like myself. Heck, it would be so nice to just be able to swap the garnish out for a new one when it comes time to sell the car.

I would replace the sony if possible. A larger driver would be tight. I used to have two 12W6's and they were amazing. Now i have two 10W3's and they are just as good. Tweeters will make your stereo sound a ton better.

they only come stock on the coupes EX's, and they fit on any other coupe, they wont fit on sedans... if your mom can find them, tell her to bring back a few sets, im sure they would sell like insanity on the board if you can get em... i know myself of a few people who would buy em, including myself

the tweeter pods for coupes sell for $10 each at my dealer, i checked with them. what do sedans have in the place that EX coupes have the tweeters? maybe some handy person could use what the sedan has, and modify it to fit a tweeter.
