Just from the threads I've seen, the Poly Fill mod seems to be pretty popular. This supposedly only improves the sound of the sub some. Cleans it up if you will. Otherwise, you are looking at replacing stuff. Have a look on stage3motorsports.com. They have a Kicker sub setup that is supposed to be a direct replacement for the current system. $$$ though.

Those are basically your options using the stock stereo. Outside of polyfill or dropping the coin on the Kicker drop-in, you're going to be replacing the stock sub with an aftermarket sub/box/amp.

I looked at the kicker replacement sub but it's says it's not compatible with the Sony HD system. I have a Sony system with the Nav so not sure if it will work or not.?

"Fitment this kit will only fit Super Crew models and is not compatible with the Sony HD Audio System on 2009 to 2010 F150s. If you're installing this kit on a 2011 to 2014 F150, the Sony 8" subwoofer will need to be removed. A version for Super Cabs is also available."

I'm guessing you have an 09 or 10 then?

EDIT: I'm an idiot, the post says 2012 F150. I would imagine this WOULD fit then.

The more expensive one with the added amp says this for fitment:

"Fitment: this kit will only fit in Super Crew Models and is not compatible with the Sony HD Audio System Package on 2009 to 2014 F150s. If you're installing this kit on 2011 to 2014 F150s, you'll need to remove the Sony 8" subwoofer. A version for Super Cabs is also available."
