* The HU is just fine, and doesn't need changing at this moment. So is your decision to retain the ovals. Please remember - once the sub goes in, the rear ovals will have to be driven from the HU, since the front components and the sub will be driven from the 4-channel amp you are getting
* Your installer does not seem to be compromising on his margins
, considering b&w
* Please check around in the ICE forums for M800 installations - the 6.5" don't seem a natural on the front doors, and would need some cutting-shutting!
* An alternative to that would be 4" components in the dash location
* Damping would be definitely required in the M800, more so since you are putting in a sub. The obvious areas would be:
- Front doors (both the metal parts as well as the door pad)
- Rear hatch (lots, including the number plate)
- A-pillar plastic cover
- Parts of the dashboard itself
- Sides of the boot
- Possibly the floor (front, driver and passenger side; for reducing road noise) and the firewall
* You have not mentioned what brand of RCAs has he suggested for you
* Who is your installer?
Do check prices at a couple of more locations to be sure.
