    Just put in a 06 xxx and it sounds like crap???

    Sounds to me like some wiring is goofed up. I'd check to make all the polarity is right and that they didn't do something dumb like splice some RCA's and hook em up backwards.

    A while back my trunk was sticking also. All I did was turn the little rubber bumpers on the trunk out a turn or two. Works like a charm now.
