Still playing around with were it fits/sounds best.



I upgraded the dash speakers to Infinity REF-4022cfx's a few months ago to my otherwise stock CDR-23 and now with the sub it is putting out some decent sound. This isn't going to wow any audiophiles or bass heads, but loud enough and very listenable.



No pictures of the sub install yet but here is one of the outside after a thorough detail.







Beautiful Box. Love the blue on silver and painted bumperettes.

I have an 03 base with Bose that sounds less than impressive, and wonder what a speaker upgrade would do. But I really and truly don't listen to the stereo much in this car, as I enjoy the other sounds it makes far better.
