Amp install C32
What a nightmare, I am trying to do 300x4 Amp to the interior JL XR's and 500 by 1 amp to a box with JL 10w3's. Running of a 03 Nav/CD system, I saved my c240 disck changer, but it has a different adapter for the 03 C32? Lame
It sounds like total crap???
Heeelllpppppp

i know that hacking into your stock stereo is going to be hard! i have ask some local stereo shops... they don't even want to do it. but... only adding an amp and a woofer shouldn't be a problem. i sugguest you to just keep the current setup and just go for a trunk install.
i have no clue about the CD changer... i got mine for 500 installed at some shop.
oh yea... another problem your gonna run into is your stock NAV. you sound will adjust according to the speed your going. and sometimes it will go crazy if the bass is too loud or something.
g'luck sean~
haha... i didn't help 1 bit!

The audio pilot did not help the system, I yanked the nav and put an Alpine in,,Its sounds really good. screw fiber optics and NAV, I know where the titty bars are anyway..so the audio is..
Alpine Mp3 Head unit and 6 disk changer 5X1/2 JL XR CO axles front 6x1/2 rear on a 300X4 watt JL Amp and a 500X1 amp on a H.O. Wedge in the trunk with 2 JL 10W3 and a capaciter. I have a new JL Box with 1 W7, but it wont fit..its a monster..
Anyway I bet my system will kick the **** outta anything hooked up to that crappy NAV head unit!

thats a serious system but www.customcarstereo.com which is here in Houston has no probs hookin up benz's with nav. Im going to take my car there just to add one sub...im thinking if i just put a 12" W6 in the trunk stuff will rattle, so maybe a custom install with the sub facing inwards through the arm rest in the back. (they do all the Rockets players etc.)

I cant say what I payed.
They gave me a free Front Euro Plate side badging, spacers and lugs though.
The pully kit is around 6 grand, I would just go with Evo Sport..
MB Quart will work.
