Default Need ideas for a system (C5 Coupe)

I haven't been into car audio in a long time. As far as head units I'll find something. But what have you guys used to replace your door and rear speakers? Also, where can I purchase a stealth box from? What do you guys recommend for subs?

This is what I have planned for a friend of mine who has a 2003 C5:

Subthump Steathbox
Alpine SWS-1042D Subwoofer
Alpine SPR-17LS Componet System
Alpine MRP-M450 Mono Amplifier
Alpine MRP-F450 2/3/4 Channel Amplifier
Alpine CHA-S634 6 Disc Changer
Alpine Headunit

1. Kenwood/ panasonic head unit
2. MB Quart 6.5 Components for door
3. MB Quart 6.5 speakers for rear
4. Jl Audio, Infinty, MTX subs depending on the power you wanna run.
5. MTX, Rockford fosgate mono amp for subwoofers
6. MTX, Rockford fosgate 4-channel to run the 6.5 Components and rear speakers.
7. you may also consider a lightning cap, as this will keep the alternator from taking a beating and give more volts to the amp.
8. Stealth box:www.subthump.com
