ive been offered a 12 jl audio W3v2 dual voice coil sub and e1200 monoblock full range amplifier for about £90. now i dont plan on upgrading the front speakers as not planning to keep the car for longer then 8 months and was wondering is it worth buying the jl amp and sub and if not what sub and amp can you recommend for around £100 second hand.

also will consider brand new but at that budget think i might be better off second hand

You can't go wrong with JL. I'm using a JL Monoblock to power my 2 Vibe Black Air 10's and it's great

was wondering is there any picture tutorials on here on how to setup thee wiring or can anyone recommend someone around sheffield/rotherham area that would just put the wires in for me at a reasonable price?

the JL 12w3 has always been one of the best all-round sub...you can't go wrong with them, that's why i got one

had the stereo and amps wired up today. now i had some problems getting the stereo to sit flush due to space in the back so had to put these in the 2nd slot which now means i cant put that storage thing back on. was wondering how easy is it to take the glovebox out hide the wires in the top there?

This is a common problem with Ibiza's.

I had a right arse on trying to get mine back in. I left the stereo up top but managed to push the wires further to the back.

Gonna be fun next month when I amp up all my speakers :| More wires!

Mine sticks out about 1/8 of an inch. The amount of wires behind mine is unreal but I managed to bunch them all together and shove them back, what a chew on.

as above, there is just enough room for all the wires to get it to sit flush...easiest way is to remove the bottom tray whilst fitting the hu, then arrange the wires to either side and plonk the tray back in
