how'd you do the wiring? considering doing exactly this to mine
I used the standard car wiring from the head deck to the speaker, then used the Alpine wiring with the internal crossover to the tweeter. At this stage I'm only using the internal amp in the CD player and it's fine with the standard wiring. I have an Alpine amp coming soon (one of the small class D amps that goes in the dash) which is rated at 45 watts so I will see how the standard wire copes with it. TBH in past installs I've changed the wiring and in other instances I haven't and I can't recall their being too much of a difference. Running new cables would not be too hard at all, the time consuming part would be getting everything apart and making them fit through the door grommets.
I plan to sound treat the doors and boot area after I get all the gear installed, if I feel like the wires need upgrading I'll do that before hand.
Let me know if you need more info or pics
