I just added the JL audio TWK 88 and now sounds even better that I can tweak each speaker individually. The only down side right now is the Kenwood ddx9904s just doesn't fill the whole opening. I know Carbon Car Systems in Australia does sell the trim ring for the aftermarket radio. http://carboncarsystems.com.au/shop/...rz-facia-2017/
here is that link. Not sure if 130 plus shipping is worth it if I can do some playing around with ABS myself.
I'll most likely definitely swap out the HU and throw in some RCA cables while I'm in there, see how the speakers are, and add a sub or two. It's a shame too because I used to be able to abuse the crap out of the one in the '13 and it took it like a champ. Half of my initial drive home was spent configuring the radio instead of just enjoying the drive home, and I still wasn't satisfied with the result
