Recently had a local shop install one of these for me in my 18 Si Sedan: https://alpine-usa.com/product/view/pwe-s8
Placed it under the passenger seat.
It really helped fix the lack of bass in this car. I was originally planning on replacing all of the speakers, but after adding this as an additional sub I think I'm all set!
They used the signal from the stock subwoofer, and left the OEM one in place, so this Alpine unit is just an additional.
They also installed the subwoofer controller into an empty plastic panel on the left of the steering wheel.
Overall, the wiring is completely hidden, and the controller switch looks OEM!
If you are looking on upgrading the bass in your car, I highly recommend one of these all in ones. I have an Si with the Katzkin leather, and the speaker fit perfectly. The only thing that kinda sucks is, if I place the subwoofer on top of my rubber floor mat, it rattles crazy, so i have to bend the floor mat - but that's really a first world problem haha!
