This is my car audio page. I installed a new Pioneer DEH-3800MP head unit with MTX 6502's in the rear where the stock speakers used to be.

I just finished painting the center console with red accents. I had to take it out anyway since I was replacing the radio adapter with a different one. THE OLD ONE'S FOR SALE 15 DOLLARS SHIPPED!!

I just got back from the War on Terror and felt like an upgrade was in store. I got an MTX 5500 10" in the side ported MTX box and a 300W RMS MTX Thunder amp for a decent price. I tell you what, that 10 hits harder and louder than the Kicker CompVR ever did. That should put a little more bump in the hatch.

I really need to install some sound deadener in the rear hatch area so my car will not rattle so much when I'm bumping down the road. There are some hidden bins under the rear carpet that rattle because they are just kind of sitting under there. I think I'm going to figure out a way to remove them and put some sort of brace under there to hold the floor up where it's supposed to be. Besides that the next things for the stereo are to replace the front components with MTX's and get a new deck from Clarion and the amp for the fronts and rears.
