So i finally bit the bullit and spent some money on the yaris... Again... This time i focused on in car entertainment. I did the following.

Parrot asteroid smart indash touch screen nav unit.
Alpine type S 6.5" speakers front and back.
Alpine compact 4 channel speaker amp.
Alpine Cmos reverse camera.

I love everything that i did. The indash is amazing, i scored it for $150 from best buy as it was a display unit but its literally brand new. The user interface is very simple with a lot of customization and it works flawlessly with android phones (its designed off of an android platform)

The type S speakers mated to the amplifier completely changed the sound of the system. The stock speakers are total garbage and you realize that as soon as you pull them from the door. The speakers came with brackets too which was nice and theyre a shallow mount speaker so they fit like a glove.

The back up camera is much better than i thought it would be as far as image quality goes. But we will see how well it does in the winter.

Thanks guys! Thats why i bought this particular amp. I wanted to just power the speakers and i wanted 4 channels and i didnt want to mount it under the seat or anywhere that would take up space. This amp is exactly what i was looking for so i jumped all over it.

I haven't played with audio stuff in years but do amps now generate heat? I'd reconsider the position if they do.

If it doesn't then that's an awesome install! Really digging the whole set up. If I wasn't thinking about trading in the Yaris, I'd probably do something like this
