No, it will be so underpowered that it will be a joke........an expensive joke at that.

if you're just using the power in the stock HU....



Ok, I'm back, just peed my pants laughing...TWO 12s, the thing has barely enough power to push the crappy little 8!

Yes you get a rca converter, an amp, and the 2 subs. Connect the rca box to your original sub wires and ur good to go. Thats what i did until i got my alpine H/U

I have one 12'' Rocksford Fosgate and it rattles everything in the car so much! It is extremely rediculous, but i love it.

And I am running it off of my stock HU.
