Add more base to original sound G35 sedan
I got a 2008 G35, sedan few months ago. Premium sound system installed but kindda lack of base. I'd like to add just more base to the system.
I think about get me a 8" bazooka w/ built-in Amplifier (150 watts RMS). can I just tap of the two rear speakers to plug to the bazooka? does it make the original speaker damage ?
is anyone here done this before please give me some suggestion
thanks

Rear Woofer "Vent" Fix
My suggestion would be to pull the rear woofer.
Reason:
Its in the perfect location, and isn't capable of that much bass. If you're going to build a box, or do a bazooka tube (doesn't matter), let that bass bounce around in the trunk and amplify, then come out the rear deck into the rear window and BOOM right into the car. It's the best possible way to get bass into a trunk-setup car. The rear woofer would most likely get damaged from all the additional backpressure of a trunk woofer, so I would pull it out.
The factory grill and etc should be retained for that stock look and feel, plus you can return it back to stock later if you change your mind, sell the car, etc. I would do a nicer quality 10" woofer, maybe a custom box with .5 - .75 cu ft (depends on the woofer requirements). Bass tubes are cool, but an 8" will do more than the stock setup, but I think you'll find a 10" would be the magic trick.
Do not doubt the power up an upward firing "vent" from a trunk. Sounds incredible with the trunk lid closed. Very clean sound.

so your suggestion is if I use the tube like bazooka/amp (easy to install) I should use the 10" one and remove the stock base (located in the middle rear one) be cause the air pressure may damage the stock base since it present there didn't do any good.
if so can I use the signal from the stock base wire to the tube base ? cuz I know there is a small amplifier to drive the stock base as well.
