What do you run in your system?

fej · 02-10-2006, 02:56 PM

In an attempt to keep this thread "list only" we ask that you direct questions either to the owner of said system, their install thread or speak via PM .. THANK YOU

After trolling around tons of car audio sites over the past couple of months I thought that it would be cool to have a "post your components" thread to see what fellow vette folks run in their cars. I figured a template would be easy to read and easy to follow suit with so here goes:

Head Unit:

Rear Speakers:

Car PC:

Hope we get lots of replies and have fun

Edit: added install cost to system cost on a seperate tab
