W204
pretty complicated if you dont know what your doing. i installed jl w6 v2 13" with JL 1000 x 1 amp. the hard part is to get the wires from your trunk to your battery if your seats does not fold but other than that its the same thing. and if you are using your stock deck youll need a high low converter for your speaker signal..

[QUOTE=6speedbenzLA;3149661]They are the same thing. you just need a converter to drop the speaker level outputs down to line level (RCA's). unless you have an amplifier with differential inputs, like a JL audio in which case you dont need the converter at all: you can just wire direct into the amplifier.

In addition to the open questions, can a place like Best Buy or Circuit City do the install on subs for this car? Circuit City did my set up in my Jeep and did a great job...

i would rather take a 36-40K car to an actual stereo shop that specializes in just stereo components. I've heard nothing but horror stories about those places....
