I might be in if that's the case...

I can't remember how you choose between the 4 and 2 ohm subs. I think the older model cars should use 4 ohm? My car came with the LOGIC7 Sound System (11 speakers, including 2 subwoofers, 420 W amplifier, 7-band equalizer, and LOGIC7 signal processing with switchable surround modes). It's a 2008 335 convertible.

Also, there's models SWS-8 and SWS-8Xi. Which model and impedence should I get?
as for the vendor, you can check out their web site: http://www.caraudiocraze.com/

i dont know if he's an authorized vendor but im pretty sure they are brand new and not refurb. he had told me that the 2 ohm versions were on national back order and as such they didnt have any stock between december and march. i actually emailed Earthquake myself and the sales rep confirmed that the 2 ohms were out of stock across the country... so my vendor is pretty legit.

the impedance you get depends on which amp u use and how u will wire everything. do a search and you will see lots of threads on this topic. i'm going to wire in stereo to an amp that i have and will use the 2 ohms.
