    I do not have the stock tweeters. I have the Subaru ones. https://parts.subaruorangecoast.com...oWpg85qdDtk6cY_ITcmTCh1IYRAp_SJhoCSj8QAvD_BwE

    After some days of thinking I think I want to add a sub now too. I don’t know much about subs, been looking at this one https://www.bestbuy.com/site/kicker...X71djwVaYcPqPcaIAExoCqn4QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds . Was also looking at this amp as well https://www.crutchfield.com/p_130GMDX975/Pioneer-GM-DX975.html?tp=35808 does it seem good? I’m currently looking at as much as I can but this is what I’ve liked so far.

    yes, but you'll have to run 2 separate power cables to the battery (one for the 4 channel and one for the powered sub)

    You can run a single battery cable back to a block, then tap off the block for the amp and the powered sub. Just make sure your cable is of sufficient size
