Can you replace the subwoofers in the back of a 1999 q45 for more powerful ones?

I have a 1999 q45t black on black. The stereo system is great and it even comes with subwoofers. Is there anyway i could just take it took a local audio shop and have them removed and put in new subwoofers with ALOT more power. If not, will it sound decent if i just get some subs and put it in my trunk?

i wouldnt see any reason you couldnt do that... Just replace it with the same size sub, use a regular amp that has speaker level inputs, and you should be all set...

I took it to Stereo One by my house right after i posted this to see if it could be done...I found out that the loud base that i had were not subwoofers but "mids"...wierd...but he said to not waste your time and money trying to replace those

He's right. They're not subwoofers but full range speakers. They just have a nice bottom end.

You can add a line level subwoofer in a separate enclosure, or even an infinite-baffle subwoofer in the rear deck if you can get around the rear sunshade.
