Oh and about the OEM look with grill cloth up on the dash...I'm afraid the cloth would fade over time and start looking like crap (unless it is UV protected). Just my opinion.

I also think Styx needs to be suspended until he gets his system up and running!!!!

Impact has the Kenwood flip out that does 5.1 and Pioneer made the 7500 that had 5.1. I think the Valor unit has built in 5.1 but, I just would have a hard time going from Alpine to Valor. If Kenwood, Pioneer, Clarion or Eclipse made a double din with built in 5.1 processing, I would be very tempted to switch. Alpine does make the theater amps with built in 5.1 but, then I loose tons of power. Going from 270 watts to my Germs to 65 watts is not what I would want to do.

But, I do love having 5.1. I still have yet to hear a 5.1 music DVD. I have heard they are awesome. But, for movies, it's great.

I've got Metallica, Blue Man Group, Eric Clapton. Most of the time I download the music videos and make my own DVD Audio disk. It's not terribly hard but I don't think I can tell you how to acquire the videos on here.
