    12" Sub for a Swift will eat out the boot space & shake it hard Are you sure you want to go for 12" ?

    Anyway good luck with your ICE hunt.

    teddy it would be easy for all of us to comment if you could provide us with a break up (range) of each individual item.

This way you would get surplus money (which you'll get by not installing co-axial speakers in the rear) to invest in a better component set (Focal access are not bad at all) or a better 4 channel amplifier as JBL amplifiers are known for their harsh sound notes and not highly recommended.
    Shall we....

    Please say No to Access series from Focal. It will make you hate the rest of the Focal line-up.
    Go for Polyglass instead its a lot lot better compared to Access. Its not bright but harsh. I have used Access and then Polyglass and now i'm on Morel Tempo.

    I don't know how much Access sells for right now, but in 7 to 12k range you have Morel Maximo and Tempo from Morel. RF Punch should suit you well too imo, had a short listen to the Punch in a Swift VDI. I'm not into ICE scene much now so am not aware of new brands/prices/how they sound. Experts will guide you better. But i know enough to tell you to say NO to Access

    AFAIK its a SPL sub. It will provide you with shaky bass. If that's what you want, then go for it.

    For that you have to sit in the boot.

    Do not go for punch subs from RF, they all are quite boomy/Shaky after certain volume. Go for good JL audio SUB with a decent mono amp to drive. But , it will set you back by at least 25 to 30k.
