Simply beautiful. I'll going to upgrade as well, I'm going to start subtle then work my way to a complete overhaul.
I want to diagram a skeleton layout first, basically prep the car for amps, new speakers and insulation. Just to make it easier to add/remove, with little effort.

Being a hatchback, there isnt much room for amps in our car. This is why I went for the all in one DSP/amp Mosconi. It fits in the cubby nicely. If you want a little more power the Helix P SIX is very nice as well. My biggest concern was keeping everything totally stock looking. However, at the end of the build I realized I wanted to do a 3 way in the front and I needed custom pods made for my mids and tweets. These are being made as we speak, so there should be some updates on the build in the next few weeks.

The Stereo Integrity BM mkIV is no slouch. I put it in a pre fab Atrend box that has the exact specs for that driver and the build quality is great too.
BM mk IV 12? Subwoofer | Stereo Integrity
Driving that sub with a JL 300/1 amp is a perfect combo. It hits hard , low and my windows rattle like crazy. I have had several people listen to the car and they can believe its a single 12" that is only 4' deep.
I love what you and others have done with the custom enclosures in the back of the A7 but that wasnt for me this time around.

I wanted something that I could remove if needed. I didnt want to lose my spare tire or worry about building anything custom out of fiberglass back there.
