the install looks pretty clean with minimal loss of space (no real useable space anyway) and the bonus, its modular. I ran the power wire from the battery, the ground from the factory ground point inside the spare tire well (forward and to the left of the battery, just track the ground wire from the battery), and a simple loc (scosche fa1 $18 at wallmart)to tap the factory harness. BSW has good instructions on how to tap, see the installing an aftermarket sub to factory system post on their site. Had to put some of those felt carpet thingies on the rubber gromets for the rear hatch because it was vibrating tooooooooo much.
Anyway james the rest of the project is comming along nicely. Just picked up a pair of dayton 5s52an midranges here's the link

on a recommendation from a friend whose got them and can't say enough about them. Going to use these in the factory dash location. Also picked up two sets of old school a/d/s px tweets and 6" midbass. I decided to run everything active so I've got an ads ph30.2 6 x 75 with 3 way x-over and a 2x50 w Xtant a2002 to run the rears with an a/d/s ax2e active x-over.....will update as it unfolds....
BTW any power problems with your X? I'm considering having my alternator re-wound to put out 200A 'cause I'm getting a little bit of the ole dimming lights on long bass notes..
