    Yes, the passenger seat. I used this one if you're interested, for the money it's pretty impressive:

    Thanks for the link! That's pretty compact and cheaper than the OEM fosgate subwoofer. Does it sound/feel out of balance being on one side of the car vs in the middle?

    Not at all. Like most subwoofers, it's omnidirectional, as in it doesn't matter where you're sitting, you'll feel/hear it. This isn't a major thumper, btw, but it does add in a very smooth, tight bottom end that the Rockford's can't deliver.

    Well that's all I need either way. Thanks again.

    Finally bit the bullet and replaced my stock rims yesterday. The ride is so much smoother now.

    Replaced stock head unit with model #8750A659 with Apple CarPlay. Came with all necessary adapters. Only thing left to wire up is the Bluetooth.

    Thank you! They ride way better than the stock pizza cutters.
