Default Audio?

Alright, I wanna drop around $400-500 on a new system here.

I want a new touchscreen dash receiver (preferably Bluetooth with it).
I also need the dash kit to install it with.

I would like one or two subs, and an amp. Not sure if I should get speakers for the doors, but if you think I should let me know. If someone can help me out with a build, I'd appreciate it!

I'll be buying everything from Amazon!

Well I think the double din, touch screen, Bluetooth receiver would be the costliest thing and run you about what you want to pay for the whole system. I am not sure but I think someone on here knows how to wire the stock speakers into the aftermarket receiver, I could be wrong. If not then you will have to buy some 4 inch speakers and wire them in to either, your receiver or a 4 channel amp, which requires running more wires. The subs can be pricey, just depends on what you want and how much boom boom you want. Two subs is possible, but it will be very tight back there. I have one and there isn't any room left, but It's a huge box and sub, so I can't complain.

I found someone on Amazon pretty damn cheap to be honest:

Amazon.com : BOSS Audio BV9362BI In-Dash Double-Din 6.2-inch Touchscreen DVD/CD/USB/SD/MP4/MP3 Player Receiver Bluetooth Streaming Bluetooth Hands-free with Remote : Vehicle Dvd Players : Car Electronics Amazon.com : BOSS Audio BV9362BI In-Dash Double-Din 6.2-inch Touchscreen DVD/CD/USB/SD/MP4/MP3 Player Receiver Bluetooth Streaming Bluetooth Hands-free with Remote : Vehicle Dvd Players : Car Electronics

I would just need an install kit that would fit the 6.2"

I also went and bought a comp s 12" kicker today. Might get one more or L7's. Also tweeters maybe, and an amp.

I know 2 L7's wont fit back there. If you can get 2 L7's back there without giving some radical money to someone, then more power to you. The comp S's might sound pretty good. Tweeters would be a good idea. The amp you want should have the same rms as the sub or subs you put in. So, say 2 comp S's at 300 watts each rms, you would need an amp that has a rms of 600 watts, no less.
