I think I have some Morel 2-way componets somewhere around here. They were suppose to go into my fiance's 05 4-door, but I decided to go with a custom floor box for the mid, so I'm picking up some SEAS Lotus speakers for her now.

Bah, can't find em. But I do have a Diamond Audio D7 152 (I think its the amp) in immaculate condition. Its used, but you'll never be able to tell. Even the mounting tab for the screws arn't scratched. Well, more or less, it's a new amp in condition. I'll throw in a set of Focal 165 K2's along with it. I'm lookin' around $700 for the set.

sorry yea...i just freed up some space in my mailbox now...you can pm me with your info and such. do you have paypal? cuz you can pay me through paypal if you would like too.

well it is good that more watts you have the louder the speakers will be. but then again you dont really wanna power components to the max just czu if you run it with max power continuously, id say that they wont last as long. but thats just me. with these mb quarts all you really need o nthem is about 100 watts running through them and they will sound clean.

also you will need this certain type of connector to connect to the speakers. ill show you a pic of wat i did to the stock wiring in the back so that i coul use these speakers.
