ICE (In Car Entertainment)

Here's some before pics of the system before summer '08:

And here's what's in the car now:

SUBWOOFERS:

The subs are 12" Alpine Type Rs (2 ohm version). They're housed in a Bassworx box (with the hard to find silver front instead of black). the box is gonna be replaced soon, it got slightly damaged after the mounting bracket broke

AMPLIFIERS:

A Mono Amp puts out 1700W continuous to the subs (about 850W into 2 ohms) and a 4 Channel Amp puts out 1100 to the speakers (each gets about 125W)

HEADUNIT:

A 7 inch Alpine touchscreen with features like Ipod, bluetooth, GPS, DVD player, and most any other feature you will find in a headunit. Truly one of the best products Alpine makes, and my own personlly favorite addition to the car

SPEAKERS (FRONT):

5.25inch Alpine TypeR component speakers mounted in the front doors, only the tweeters are exposed, the mids and crossovers are behind the panel

SPEAKERS (REAR):

Alpine 6x9 TypeRs, mounted on a costum black leather panel 

GPS/BLUETOOTH:

The Alpine Blackbird Nav system (The pic on the left is the touchscreens Dock 'n' roll feature, just push the blackbird in and the touchsreen becomes the nav). This hooked my touchscreen up with GPS and bluetooth. The 2 pics shown below are the GPS satellite receiver (located above drivers door) and Bluetooth microphone (located in front of driver visor)

Aternator:

Powermaster 150amp alternator to help the battery keep up with the cars electrical demand. Had to special order it from the local Partsource (Alot of you might be thinking my car doesnt need a new alterator for this system, but keep in mind its not finished yet)
