I was able to get both subs shipped from the UK for about $350USD. I'll see if i can find the seller again.

Install is super simple, 2nd one took maybe 15 minutes...It takes longer to replace the OE cover and re-fasten the (4) seat bolts, than it does to install the "sub".

i really need to get the Focal mids + tweeters installed in the front door, now...as the stock HiFi speakers are really showing their weakness, at this point!

Installed mine this weekend too and the rings I think are for other models where the speaker doesn't clear the bottom of the enclosure. I used them originally and noticed that i couldn't put the oem grills back on properly so removed them. Also sound deadened the enclosures a little.

How much gain are you feeding them from the amp?

Thankfully, I'm putting in some ES100k's this weekend. Just waiting for my OEM speaker connectors to come in.
