Upgrade sound pics
Still some changes to be made but sound improvement was noticeable
The dynamat made a huge difference however only on the rattle and vibrations from speaker .
I didn't insulate all the door , neither seal the hole for the window regulator so I can't comment on noise reduction
The fast rings are a great deal and an easy way to improve mid bass
Thanks Baldfox for all the advises
Overall I'm happy with the Hertz DSKfront , Dcx rear great sound and bass but will look to replace the tweeters. They are a little harassing
The kenwood powered amp does help to get some bass kick but do not expect a deep bass . Still good enough for me and space saver is a plus . Was easy to install . As it only consume 7amp I connected to the amp power supply ,ground and remote ... my Amp has a output rca so didn't have to run new cable from the headunit
Hide the control on the center console. I don't like stuff hanging around
Now I'm waiting for the onstar box replacement so once I remove the console will replace and relocate the Rca

Or give me the bass I was looking. . Not too harass. Is not a really deep bass but when played loud you feel the vibration in your body
It fit perfect under the seat taking not space at all . Even the seat fold all the way down
One for the door interior (what you see in pic 2 ) it os supposed to be stick on the speaker but attach it to the door interior was much easy
And one for the speaker front . To seal tye gap between speaker and grill
I cover the speaker hole with the dynamat to avoid vibration which was very bad before
If you start with the front doors and think the doors are flimsy wait till you get to the back door ( that sound wrong) better let said rear doors
I spent much more dynamat on rear and still.got short for another package
Last update . I replaced the standard RCA for Gigh quality JL rca . Plus connected the sub to the Hu sub output
And the bass was improved a 90%
Im so happy with the sound system in general . Cheap and it sound great
Here it is a resume with price for what I spent (I bought everything in amazon)
HU kenwood DMX 571HD ~600 (bought 2 years ago)
Amp pioneer ~130
Speakers hertz 165 component ~ 120
Tweeters kikck ~ 35
Kenwood sub ~165
Rca ~32
Dynamat ~ 130
Fast rings ~24 each (2 pack needed)

By the way - I did finally have a chance to check the Onstar mic and I was wrong. It works perfectly fine. Turns out my Kenwood defaulted to turning the microphone level down as low as it would go. On the phone screen on the Kenwood (or in the main setup) go into the setup options and you can adjust the mic level and noise reduction levels. I have my noise reduction now set to zero and I cut the mic level up to the max (I think it was 15) and now when i call someone they can hear me perfect, not even really raising my voice.
That is nice ... I got to find a way to put mine . I got a safebox in the center console but only to hide the gun when I'm not carrying..
