I've decided I don't really want a big sub in the truck so will upgrade the 8" door subs. I've read most of the Tunes threads relating to door subs but could still use some advice.
I know the factory subs are 1 ohm DVC and the harness has 2 wire sets connecting to both sets of terminals.
I know about the Shelby Kicker set but don't want them because they are 2 ohm SVC.
I also know about the 43cwrt81 subs from kicker as being a true plug and play 1 ohm DVC but I think they are too expensive at $300 a pair and they don't go very deep.
I've replaced my upper door and rear deck speakers with decent Rockford Fosgate units so when I found shallow mount 8" 2 ohm DVC subs by RF, I thought they'd be a good choice for about $200 a pair. They are rated down to 38 hz which is pretty low for an 8". Model P3SD2-8
So, what wiring method would work best for these?
Hook both wire sets to both terminal sets?
or
Use one wire set only, and wire the DVC in parallel?
