    id start at a pawn shop since you dont have a real big budget. luckily you did say the power wire is ran, so that will save you money.. id buy an amp kit from rockford which are around $40, then a pawn shop amp with around 500rms, try for name brand. be careful at pawn shops, they try to screw you! around $80 for this, then find a sub box that comes with subs likeAmazon.com: Kicker Comp 07DC104 4-Ohm 2 Subwoofers In Vent Box: Electronics
    all of these should keep you inside your $350 budget

    does anyone know the quality of those kickers?

    edit: I just looked at the wires, and its definatly wired for subs. There are three wires running from the trunk to the front of the car (2 of 3 i the purpose). The largest wire goes from the battery to the trunk (power for the amp). The second wire is a double wire that would connect to the HU for subs. The third is a small wire that goes from the trunk into the HU mounting area and into one of the plugs that goes into the HU. The previous owner cut the original wire to the plug and replaced it with the new wire. Im not sure what this is does anyone know the purpose of this 3rd wire?
