i got it for $50, i spent a further $20 dollars to remake some parts, had all that blue vinyl lying around, but will prob need $20 more for the floor and back, and $30 for a fibreglass repair kit. $120 all up is a steal :lol:

I must admit it did sound real nice and crisp and it was a very clean install.

If you're going to run 4 big amps and subs, you may need to upgrade your alternator and/or battery.
They can chew through a lot of power.

Personally, I think 1 sub is more than adequate for an MX-5.
My little single 8" sub can really shake the insides of the car, and its passengers!
