Default Missing Jack Parts and Missing Bass Speaker in Trunk!

Hi Everyone, I bought a 2002 RSX Type S last week and I am finding out new issues.
The latest thing I found is that the jack only comes with one rod with a circular head. The tire iron and the other piece for turning the jack screw are missing. Buying these from dealership is a no go because I don't have that much money to spend. Anyone selling theirs for cheap?
To make matters worse, I looked at the Owner's manual and it says to remove the spare wheel, first remove the base speaker and I am thinking what [freak]ing bass speaker, the spare wheel isn't even attached. That pissed me off a lot. So now I need the speaker and the thing that attaches the wheel to the trunk. Again, stealership is definitely not a feasible solution for me. Anyone have these parts for cheap? I don't even know how to connect the speaker or if the wiring is there. The guy I bought it from did mention something about wiring for an after-market amp... Do All RSX Type-S's come with the base speaker?

It's basically a mini sub with an amp that fits inside the steel spare wheel. It's barely noticeable.

If you don't replace your spare and scissor jack, you can just get away with just getting towing service from your insurance company. I am sure you would be able to find this stuff at a junkyard.

Hmmm,,, Not noticeable eh? The thing is I dont want to take up my entire trunck with a huge subwoofer and amp. Does anyone have any solutions that take up reasonable space and can produce noticeable bass?

just so you know its bass not base. all you have to do is get a decent component system for your front, preferably with the crossovers built into the speaker and some coaxial or 3 way(if you want better highs) speakers for the back seats. get a decent 4 channel amp and there you go. the rsx is relatively small inside you don't need anything killer in there.

or just buy some stuff from whiteonrice

You have never bought anything from the stealership have you? They wont sell jack parts. Only the whole Jack for over 100 bucks.
