Refer to sound section of this forum.

No offence to anybody but Alpine kit is just a start. As it uses your stock subs.

Depend on what you are looking for. If you need punchy bass, go for different levels of sound syetem.

If you just need louder sound with better sound, alpine kit should do it.

One thing, if you go for aftermarket headunit, and take your car to dealer for any updates, they will not be able to update the firmware as bus system of your car will be incomplete.

So be careful if you are planning to for for aftermarket head unit.
