I was going to get an amp that runs at 1 ohm stable and get 2 duel 4 Ohm subs and wire them to run at 1 ohm. But that would over power these by quite a bit with the amp I have in mind for them. So I would rather do 2 ohm and wire them up so that way each sub will get 400 watts.

yea i got 2 w3's. guess what, dont fit under the rear seat. on the website it said the w3's had a mounting depth of 5 3/4 or something along those lines, dont take that lightly. When they say mounting depth of that much, they truly mean that much. I have around 6 inches under my rear seat. they didnt fit. Your going to have to go with low profile subs for under the seat. Unless you want to put the subs ontop of the rear seats. if the mark lt is a bench seat in the back i would recomend something that goes over the middle seat, but if your not willing to use the space above the seat, and want something below the seats, your going to need something that has a mounting depth less than 5 inches. Remember, the mounting depth is just the unit itself, you then have to add the box, along with the dimensions in which the box needs to include. hope this was helpful.

negative., You just need the proper box. http://www.foxacoustics.com/ProductD...#37;2D210%2D04
