    is that 250 rms for both subs.. or each one is seeing that amount of power.

    JL 12W3v2's would fit in that application like a glove. So would the new 2007 Alpine Type S or E subs.

    The JBL wants a small box (1.0) and the Kicker comp VR wants a much larger box.. up to 4.6 cubes! Plus it is a 400 rms speaker..

    I think the JL 12W3v2 would be where its at. Since the new V3's are out you can prolly find a good deal on a pair of the old V2's from dealers trying to get rid of their outdated stock.

    If you can though, call around to the local JL dealer near you and see if they are running a clearance on the old 12w3v2's as you might be able to get a really good deal plus the JL warranty with it if you buy at a dealer.

    yeah i think those G2's will work great for his application.. like i said though he just needs to polyfill the box.
