You're gonna love it, I put the sub only kit in my truck and wow!! Huge improvement. I did upgrade the door speakers with Polk audio however, never got around to installing the amp for the door speakers simply because it sounds fine the way it is.
When I wore a younger mans clothes I would have installed it first.
P.S. Be sure you turn the bass way down before you crank the sound, you'll know why as soon as you turn it on unless they adjust it during install, I installed mine my self.

I guess I should follow this up, I had the Powerstage installed. Overall, I'm very happy with it. There's no hiding the fact that the factory speakers are cheap paper cones, and Kicker said if I want to replace them to go with their KS (I think) speaker kit. However, the 4 channel dramatically improved the sq out of my door speakers and the sub sounds great. I'm happy

Can someone please shed some more light on this for me? Do you have a link to this "kit"?
I have a 2012 F150 with the basic stock stereo (not sony system). I have the tweets in the door posts. I do have the Bluetooth/sync but that's it. It sounds like crap.
I'm looking to upgrade the speakers, add an amp, add a sub. A plug and play kit for all this stuff would be fantastic. I never thought anything like that would exists. I'm out of the loop, lol.
For sure I want to keep the stock head unit and keep everything looking as factory as possible.
I'm in Canada so everything is always more money with exchange and shipping. However, I could install it myself to offset the cost.
thanks.
