Just pop that piece off on the top that is above the speakers, it does just pop off with a screwdriver or something like that. Amp up on the backwall behind the seat and I will post a link to a sub box that I like alot. Other guys will post up boxes like the fox box, but I like to have my back seat storage, so I have a center front seat sub box

I have a 4 door truck. There is no space behind the back seats. Any other idea?

you wont have any speakers in the dash unless you have the infinity system, but i did put speakers in there they are 3 1/2" speakers, i mounted my amps under each of my seats and i have a fox box under the back seat

I do have the infinity system. I tried to pull the dash covering the speakers and it came out. Thanks.
My other question is do i have to use 6x9 speaker in the front doors, or 6x5 would do?

Also to install an Amp i have to run the wires from the radio to the amp and then to the speakers right? If i have a 4-ch amp, is this enough for all the speaker in the truck (there should be 7 speakers right.)

i put 5x7 in my front doors because the aftermarket infinity speakers will not fit but some 6x9 will just depends on the size of the magnet. Since you have the infinity system i believe that you will have to run a wire all the way from the amp back to the speakers and yes you can get a line converter that uses the wires on the back the radio to give you a rca signal. I have my 2 dash speakers and my 2 front door speakers on one channel of the amp and my back door speakers on one channel i do not have a center channel in my truck i did not have the factory infinity system

My 08 has Kicker 6x9's in the doors now. Even plug right into the factory harness.
www.kicker.com/mopar for great sounding stuff that plugs right into the oem wiring.
