Default old stuff. worth installing?

OK so my friend offered me his old stereo system from his mazda mpv for free so i said why not what the hell. So my question is can this stuff even be installed in my 99 lx or does it even fitand is it worth it? If yes should I install myself or just take it to professions? Im kind of hesitant since I just had to change my alternator and battery. But Im open to anyy suggestions.

Heres the lists:

4 pinoneer speakers

1 bazooka base tube

1 cadence amp

(cant remember if its this exact one)

p.s this is the cd playa i have

Thanks in advanced.

Go for it. The worst it's going to do is sound like crap aye? lol j/k... I do like the speakers and head unit though. I've heard bazooka isn't very good. don't know anything about the amp.

Mmm, eh not too bad for free.. I mean, its better than nothing, right? At least you get a little bump in your trunk . Well, if you can, research installing them, because alot of places charge you up the ***, and its really pretty simple. All you really have to do is connect wire to your deck, run wire through your firewire to your battery and through your car(tedious process), make sure everything connected and stuff. Its really not too bad. And with that capacitor, you'll be safe too. Though, that sub doesn't seem to hit too hard, so I wouldn't worry. I have a 1500 watt Alpine Type-R, and a 1000 Watt Kenwood amp, with a 4 Farad capicitor, and it hits REALLY hard.. So hard that if i have it on all the way, my frikkin' windsheild will vibrate like crazy and it scares me because I think its gonna break lol.

Go for it. Then if you want, save up adn gets better stuff as you save the money up. It took my over a year when I was 17 to get my car where I wanted it. Just take your time. You will be better off in the end.
