how to add subs to stock stereo fr-s

So since I haven't seen anything on here about this Id thought I'd let y'all know a few key things

The remote wire that goes front stereo head to amp needs to be connected to the brown wire behind the radio, it's on a 10 pin harness on the bottom right and has silver diamonds painted on the wire

There is a ground point in the trunk under the plastic lip at the front bottom of trunk, there are 3 plastic body pins that hold it in, ground is held in with a 3/8in bolt

Is it one of the tubes? Let me know how it sounds. I want something small and easily removable when I really need the space and these seem like a pretty good option if the sound quality is there.
