Aftermarket Audio System Install
I will be posting a step by step account of the Audio system installation.
I still have the Stock Head unit. (deciding on which new one to get).

Well ,
I just finished a full upgrade on mine as well
I used the factory head unit with the nav.
Front speakers Focal KRX 6.5 Component
Center Channel Bang & Olufsen 3''
Rear doors Focal K2
Sub 12'' Alpine R dual voice coil.
Amps TruTechnology S4 & S44
Processor Mobridge MB1000 DA3 dsp
Clarion amp for the centre channel.
also did a bypass switch for the days I need trunk space I can reconnect the factory sub.
It was a PIA to get this done and almost 10K CAD.
Tuning was the hardest part But I can never go back.
I could have done the head unit but wanted to keep the factory look
unless you open the trunk you will never know the car has an upgraded system or until the person next to you holds their head and ask where did all that sound come from......
