I wish I made more money. 
DAMN this L.A.U.S.D freeze!!!
Clonetek, everytime I see that, I get more and more jealous, except, I'd have to change out the head unit for a Alpine DVD, and squeeze in a navigation unit + TV Tuner somewhere in there.

if you are like me and personally know your local manager of the car tunes here in allen park michigan,,, then you can get it all for a great deal 
plus with the advantages of buying from a car stereo shop is ifi i blow it all its just swapped for free of charge.
Lets see,, so far i've got two ppi pcx 280 watt rms amps which power two jl w3 10 inch subs, and four alpine spr-574a (newest and best on market for now in my opinion) along with an alpine 7873 (60x4 ) head unit to go around,, and all for a deal i dont think could be beat if i stold all the components,, but then i love music, and i've sent lots of business his way in the past year or so. Its great to get a full body massage when i need it, and just crank it all the way up no matter what type of music i'm listening to. I swear, if i wasn't curtious enough to turn it down at stop lights, or residential streats, lots of people would hate me.. I hope you have the same problem and love every bit of your music motoracer,
Only thing i had to worry about is i installed and built all the boxes and wiring myself,,, lots of work, but fun and very proud once its all finished. Still looking to put in some 6x9 kick plates with seperate component tweaters,, i'm not much for ear blasting and i want some more clarity to my music.

Clonetek,,,, how the heck did you fit solobaric subs in the enclosures behind your seats,, did you use a cutout to the truck bed like i had thought of, Those subs require an awful lot of airspace,,, damn i hate being tall sometimes

oh yeah,,, clonetek,, i give you credit, i hide almost all of my system under seats and behind them, thought about showing it all off, but i live too close to the detroit area to do that, i figure the less advertising i do the better i guess, not to long ago i spent a good day tearing everything apart to make it far less visible, just my opinion though, i am very impressed you fit the solobaric subs in there though, if you did do cutouts to the truck bed i'd like to know how it worked out, i thought about doing that and even drew out cad plans for it but in the end just couldn't bear drilling and cutting up my new L

dumbass me had to pass up a KVT-910DVD for $700. I didn't have the money to do it, no matter how much I wanted it. A friend of mine ended up buying it, and now I have to deal with him teasing me all the time. I need a job.............
