Rockford Fosgate would just be one off the top of my head.

I second what iron said, by using an AUX input your loosing a lot of quality including bass. Even upgrading your head unit will help with audio quality. Also will be easier to install your new sub and amp.

Sub
Rockford Fosgate P1S8-8 Punch P1 8" 8-ohm subwoofer at Crutchfield.com

Amp (could go bigger)

Rockford Fosgate Punch P400-1 Mono amplifier — 400 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms at Crutchfield.com

Also if you buy from amazon or woofersetc they would even be cheaper.

Looks like you do some cool installs. I have a quick question for you. I'm getting ready install my new Pioneer AVH-X4500BT. Since I take trips with my 6 year old, I'd like to bypass the DVD parking break sensor. Internet research shows people have had a lot of success by just connecting the Green wire that would connect to the parking brake sensor to the BLack grounding wire or properly grounding out the Green wire. Have you had any experience with this and can you validate that this works?
