Hatches are the bomb
try it out first... in most cases it is fine - but it depends on how loud you want the stereo to go and what compnents you use
it can msot likely handle a 10 inch sub and 2 pairs of splits/components both of which have seperate amps for.
also if you dont have enough power you know about it by the nasty sound that comes out

I've run a head unit, 4x75w amplifier, 12" sub and 6" splits off the stock alternator and battery with no problems.
