advice much appreciated

I really like Pioneer equipment. I find it has a really nice range at a reasonable budget. I am familiar with installing head units and replacing stock speakers but have never attempted building from there. i have the factory 4 speaker system and would love to up this one.

So far I have 6.5" 4 ways in the doors and rears which are friggin awesome! however I have read to hit the full potential i need an amp in the back and if i'm doing an amp, I want a sub as well. Just one, nothing major. I listen to mainly rock so no need for ground rumbling bass. I was thinking just a 10" sub in the well on the drivers side where there is space under the plastic edge.

So, given my preferences, what type of amp should i use to power the sub and back two speakers? and, more importantly, how do I go about wiring all that in? does anyone know who makes a decent enclosure for that corner?

I would just run a mono amp on the sub. And either a 4 channel amp on your front & rear speakers or a 2 channel on your fronts & power the rears off of your deck. The latter is what I do.
