Take a look at this 
2xDLS A3 Dual Mono Amps
Fusion Jonah Lomu 15
1600W's of power 
Well happy although it's a bit too loud  I may change it a bit so I can run a JL 12W3 v2 for normal driving though.
Old install in Corsa:

I am, but I thought I would go a bit mad with this car
As I say I think I am going to modify the install so I can locate a single Phoenix Gold Tantrum out of sight, and change the box fof the sub so I can remove it and plonk a single JL W3 v2 in it's place for normal driving.
This thing drops too low for normal cruising tunes, but will probably set off car alarms at cruises

What multimedia have you got then?
Not sure what head unit to get at the moment as I want to keep the steering wheel controls.
I've got a nice Panasonic tape unit with a MP3 player running through it at the moment (Needed the RCA, but didn't want to buy another head unit)

I was, but I got bored. The stereo is the only thing I can do under warranty.
I am at work till 10 on Sunday else I would have ventured up.

To get access to the right hand tail light bulbs you had to take out the EQ and there was a hole behind it, and to get to access to the left hand tail light bulbs you could get behind the CD changer.
This picture should hopefully shed some light:

ahh right... nice pic.
How did you go about getting the side panels to fit right into the sie plastic panels of the boot. Was it just a case of trying to cut the mdf to roughly the same shape of the side?

The 15 is no use for normal listening. It's awful on dance/trance tracks.
That is why I am on about putting a 12 in for normal driving.

im getting a new sub soon, do you not recommend a 15" one? Running a shitty splX 350w amp at the moment, but hopefully getting an 800w one given to me. I like my drum n bass, dance, hardcore etc. Possiblt 2x 12"?? Any suggestions welcome!

Matt, 1 or 2 12"s would be better IMO, will be a touch punchier than a 15" (on the whole)

I have a 15" JL Audio. Keeps up with most music, BUT it wont stand a chance against Hardcore. being a BIG fan of Scott Brown. I tried one of those CD's, Didn't sound half as good as my mates 2 12". BUT it always drops a good bassline for Hip Hop, Rap and Drum n Bass. i also like playing Sound-off CD's
