Still havent been able to install these yet but as the amp is slightly overpowering them, think its only 10 or 15rms would it be best to turn the amp down or will they take 70rms?

set the gain correctly.. it will be fine
just to clarify to all: THE GAIN IS NOT A VOLUME CONTROL

was lookin at it just now, seemed like it would have to be fitted a little too far back, dnt want anyone standing on it when they get in the back.
Layed all the wires tidy then discovered I didnt have enough speaker wire!

Put mine in the mirror covers, works well enough for me
And I'd imagine sounds a little better as they're nearer ear-level height.

thats exactly what it is tho... a second volume control, use it to get the most range out of ur headunit, if the amps topping out at 20/50 volume on the h/u then u turn gain up some
