New system installed
I don't really post much, I just troll around here and there. I finally got to getting my components/sub/amp installed. My buddy did it for me that does this for his job, I am extremely happy with how it came out!

Setup:

JL 300/4v2 Amp
JL C5 650 components
Image Dynamics ID8 sub
Sound deadened doors

No rear fill, sounds pretty good. For the Retail cost of the C5 components, i am slightly unpleased with the sound, but overall very happy with the setup...

he also made a new rear carpet to replace the bose one!

Heres some pics, thanks!

yep. its just a little 8" it works perfectly to add a harmonic bass to the music though, not obnoxious what so ever...

I am actually doing something similar (definitely not as nice as your setup). Have you considered how to remove the spare tire when you need to?
