Well I'm heading to pick up my new 2012 GT after work today (first mustang ever!) and I already know that a stereo will probably be one of my first upgrades since it's a base model. I have all of the equipment left over that I took out of my trade (dual 12" subs with a 1200w mono amp, 60x4 door speaker amp) but I'm not sure I want to re-use the subs. The box is massive and weighs at least 60lbs. Are there just blank spots in the door where you can drop in 8" shallow mount subs since it's not a shaker system?

On the G8 hooking up the external amps was as simple as unplugging the harness from the back of the stock HU and using a scosche adapter to connect to the amps in the trunk without splicing any factory wires. Can the mustang be wired in a similar fashion or will I need to get an aftermarket headunit/dash in order to get my amps hooked up? Also, will 6x9's fit or will that take some modification? Thanks in advance!
