Default sc400 Rear sub help

I am looking to replace my rear 10 with something with a bit more bump since ive already replaced my headunit with the eclipse 5435 navi and all of my midrange speakers with infinity reference 6 1/2s

Does anybody have any input

like stock nak sub power rating
and if there is any kind of kit to replace the one i got??

i got a guy looking into it and it looks like its between a rockford 10 and a JL marine free air 10

you help is much appriciated

you could get a larger sub, but it would require some MDF spacer rings to install it above the gas tank. It's a pretty shallow space.

Will that JL marine free air sub just screw in/plug and play? I want to replace my speakers, did those infinity mid just plug and play?

im not saying its a bad box i just want my car to have a full trunk and since the car came with a stock sub i want to upgrade the stock sub

they sell a speaker adapter for the doors. you need to reuse the stock cross over thats in the stock speaker box but not hard.

the rear speakers i believe mounted with no problem.

IMO, speaker boxes are so 90's. I think it's fair to say the boom bass era is over with as of now. I'm grateful I don't hear license plates rattling and booming bass all down the street like the old skool days. It's just not cool anymore. Besides, you need a trunk to put golf clubs in.

I think I may get the marine woofer for the back. I just want to know if it will go in smoothly. Can the oem Lexus free air sub still be purchased?

Last time i checked with a dealer, they do not sell oem Nak or Pioneer subs anymore. They told me that they usually have them repaired.
