Honestly, this stuff isn't that hard to do. Getting your deck out of the dashboard looks like it might be a bit of a bitch though.
My recommendations - Kicker amp and Alpine subs/speakers. That's what I rolled with back when I could fit the stuff in my car. The subs have a taken a beating (both have a crack in them from being thrown in the box of my truck a couple times) and are still pounding.
I had two 12" speakers, and honestly it was complete overkill. That being said, my truck (and now my buddy's Neon haha) was very, very loud.
If you're putting the sub in your trunk, you'll probably want at least one 12", or maybe two tens just for a lower profile box. Just make the boxes yourself. All you need is half a sheet of MDF, a skill/table saw, jigsaw, and a drill. Oh and a soldering gun if you want to make good connections...just say no to butt connectors!
You'll need wire from your battery to your amp, deck to your amp, amp to subs, and deck to ground. Ensure you get a heavy enough gauge to go from the battery to the amp, and then amp to subs.
I just bought my stuff locally, but there are certainly deals to be had through online stores and Kijiji.
