    I used the Retro-auto sounds unit. Very easy to hook up and it got good reviews online. The unit from custom auto sounds got bad reviews. Put 6" rounds in the kick panels, 6x9's in the back. The amp is a 600 watt Rockford fosgate 5 channel unit. I still need to put in the two 10" subs.
    It does sound really good has iPod adapter and blue tooth capabilities. It will make the drives over to your side of the pond a little more enjoyable.

    Ok changed the oil washed the car. Installed new back window installed new drip rail trim. Raised the rear up two inches and it's too much. So I'll find some one inch blocks and drop those in.
    Road trip was a huge success. Checked nut bolts etc. all I found was a loose header bolt. Yeah ready to go again.

    Hey Steve!
    Question for you...when I looked inside your car at the assembly party, I noticed all the heater metal flaps etc look bran new. It looked so nice. Did you take them off and powdercoat them and then re-rivet them back on?
    (btw, I think you missed a smudge on the windshield...)

    "Spray bombed it"??
    Sounds easy. That's probably because I don't know what you mean.
