Salvaged some of my old Sound System - any use in my 05 coupe?

Hey guys, just picked up an 05 Civic Si Coupe.

From first glance I could see I'd need components in the front and what appeared to be 6x9's in the rear.

I had about 2 hours before the junk-car haulers picked up my old car, and I managed to take out:

-Alpine MRP500 Mono Power Amplifier.
-Alpine 12" Type R Subwoofer. (with a Thunder Box)
-Alpine SPS 6x9 Coax Speakers.

What I left in the car for a lack of tools, was a Sony deck, 6.25 Alpines in the front, and the Amp wiring kit.

Can I use the 3 things I managed to salvage in my new Civic?

Thanks!

The sub, without question.. Just a matter of location/mounting and/or your need for trunk space. Then again, I don't know what a thunder box is.. lol

as for the 6x9s, it depends on the mounting depth and/or your want for your trunk springs. Or if you're daring enough to go for a trunk shock conversion.

Everything should fit fine, in theory

So if the Sub faces inwards and rests as far back in my trunk as possible it shouldn't interfere too much with the 6x9s?

Also, should I craigslist my Amp and buy a multi channel amp for the speakers/sub?
