grats on the install, got pics?
Never had to replace the rear window despite the dual JL subs in the trunk. Double check that rear panel, sometimes the clips that snap in come loose with the bass so it can cause the rattle.

taking the head unit out is not difficult. the only hard part would be the bolt behind the dash. some have them and some dont. thats a pain to get out

Looks to be a nice setup. Seriously though, if you do shatter the back window be prepared to pay a ton of cash.
