I don't have a thunderbox, but I am considering one, and can answer most
of your questions. My stereo shop says $230 unloaded, and I've seen it
for $390 loaded (2 Thunder 5000 10"). You Don't NECESSARILY have to
replace your deck (I'd recommend it, though), but you ABSOLUTELY MUST buy
an amp. If you don't replace your head unit, you must get an amp with
speaker-level inputs (And you'll probably have to disconnect your rear
speakers). The box does completely replace the tool tray under your back
seat, but it provides a new mounting point for you rjack, and retains the
cupholders. Hope this helps.
