2013 Rubi, installed new speakers and sub! Just some notes for y'all...
I had Rockford Fosgate previously in my '09 and now have the Polks (DB651 & 6501) in my '13. I originally had the "upgraded" Alpine system but it was crap actually. I think the Polks are balanced a lot nicer than the Fosgates (don't even compare the Alpine to either), have great lows, adjustable crossover for the components and as a plus they're marine rated so I know they can take a bit of a beating in my rig. Highly recommended.
I had the polks in my last wrangler, it leaked (big surprise) so the marine rating helped. I went with the Infinity's this time as they are 2 Ohm speakers and I was reading a bit about that, I got the rears in tonight and will work on the fronts over the next few days. Thanks for the input.
- I'm using an aftermarket amp/HU so the Polks worked for me.
You absolutely do not need to take it out but it is so simple that I cannot think of a reason not to take it out and be comfortable while working on it. Takes like 30 second to use a drill to remove the 6 bolts that hold it in.
Interesting..good to know, I had no idea it was so simple to get it out - it's true, it's not the most comfortable thing in the world installing them.
