i also have 14g speaker wire,but its nothing speacial.it is all copper.i bought it at home depot about 3 yrs ago.it worked great for my home system back then.do you know about any good patch cables to run from the amp to the hu?

if your looking for a good full system amp check out the autotek 8000.5. 4 x 50 @ 4 ohm and 1 x 200 @ 4 ohm

Wiring.... I would just reccommend Knu Konceptz wiring. http://www.knukonceptz.com For what you get, it is a great price, and it is pretty good wire. This is what is in my Jeep now, and i have no complaints. Good company, and very fast shipping.

For the brackets, you can make MDF rings to put over the origional speaker hole or like Cargodz said, make/buy kick panels. To power all four of them speakers, it would be easiest with a 4-channel amp. 75-100rms x4 @4ohm like Cargodz has already stated.

Well if you're wanting to amp the whole system off one amp you'll be wanting to look into something that will be in the 4ch. 300-400wrms range @ 4ohm.
Just the front stage a 2ch. 150wrms @ 4ohm
Might I recommend as far as the 5.25"s go... you may want to look into either buying or building as set of kick panels if you've got the room.
