C230 Soundsytem setup pic?
Does Anyone have a soundsystem on their C230 K coupe? I am about to get a system but debating what kind of setup is best? Also Debating about the new ECLIPSE 7' DVD OR CLARION 7' DVD DECK? Any ideas?

This is my set up 
We added MB Quart PSD 216's and Rkc 116's in the doors. Mounting the midbass in the rear door and the Coaxials in the front with the tweeters from the components in the shark fins. We made custom box and placed it in the tire well. Mounted the amps (RF's 400x4 and 1000bd for the sub) in the floor and also made a cover so I can cover it up to use the hatch back if I need to.

Nice sub. I considered getting that and replacing mine,But i am still very impressed with how hard mine hits. My friend has 3 12 JL W3's and i persoanlly like how mine sounds better. I never heard a W7 though but i bet it sounds great.
By the way is that really a 10" LOL somehow that thing looks tiny.

How Much
TNAT: I ALSO WANTED ONE 10XW7'S BUT THEY SAID THAT WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM IN OUR 230'S TO PROVIDE GOOD BASS..IS THAT TRUE? HOW DOES IT SOUND? ALSO, LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE SOMETYPE OF A BOX, WHAT KIND IS THAT?
RENNCPE: NICE SETUP, LOOKS REALLY CLEAN PLUS YOU GOT ROOM BUT HOW DOES IT SOUND? DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH BASS? HOW MUCH DID IT COST YOU?
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR REPLIES...STILL NEED TO NARROW MY DECISION.
