Only ones with DSP have the factory sub (located in the right rear panel where the fuses are)

It's part of the premium sound package I think? DSP+10 speakers+sub... anyway, it's on the righ side, you can see 2 subwoofers... by the way, speaking of sub, don't you feel guys that it kicks in at a veryyyy low frequency? I mean unless i play some humming low freq sounds, i can hardly feel that it is kicking in, the surround speakers do all the job until 50Hz maybe (i'm not a sound expert though, so if anyone can give us more technical details...)

I agree. I couldn't hear it at all, and I just didn't feel that those two little speakers were giving me the most bang for my buck for all the airspace dedicated to the factory sub box.

I just installed a JL audio custom sub from crutchfield (the thing is HUGE, much taller than it looks in the picture below, when standing on the ground the top is waist high.) It uses up all the air space and hits like a teenagers lowered civic in front of 7-11. It's completely stealth as well and fits perfectly in the factory location. I don't drive around bumping beats like a highschooler, but I certainly could with this new sub, and it's nice to feel the bass in my lower back when listening at low volumes. I also like knowing that the bass is there in case I do want to revisit highschool for a song or two, and when I crank it up it thumps like you couldn't believe. All in all, I give it 5 stars; it completely exceeds my expectations. I replaced the factory amp too (actually the whole system) so that helps too of course...

Here's the sub:

It's awesome! :thumbup:
