For anyone wanting to change out the center channel, a 3.5" Kicker coax fits without modification.
Probably most 3.5" speakers will fit.
For those of you on the wall about center channels in car audio, when I got the Mobridge tuned, it really pulls the music to the front. It fills in the sound that the door speakers being so low, don't supply.
I have a spare 3.5" speaker if anyone needs one.

I dropped off my truck and my parts to my local installer today. I had a pretty stressful moment when he called a few hours into the job to tell me the connector from the Sound Good Stereo Kicker LOC does not fit the factory amp, and said no alternative harness exists yet for this amp, which puts him at a stand still.

I quickly jumped on a 3-way call with him and SGS and the guy on the phone, Don, told him to simply cut off the ends of the connector for it to fit to the factory amp. I know nothing about car audio or electronics so this was all foreign language to me, but it appears to be all sorted out and they had a nice conversation about the process. Either way it was a but of a stressful moment but it appears everything is good to go now. My installer needs another day to finish up, so I will update again in the near future.

So for those in the future, you can replace the SoundGood Kicker KeyLOC / separate amp setup with a Kicker Key500.1 amp and their wiring harness to do the same thing but with a built in amplifier. This saves about $200 over the KeyLOC with an AudioControl or similar low profile amplifier. Keeps your packaging way neater than otherwise.

Will do 300w RMS at 2 ohm just like what the JL and most other shallow 10's require. With a used Soundbox and the all in one kicker setup I'll be in just under a grand, which is better than the 1800+ if I had done it the old way and bought it all new.
