Way cool, Bill. Can't wait to see the pictures.

I think I've narrowed my receiver choice to 2 units. I can't decide if I should do my speakers or not at the same time. I've got the Bose upgrade in the Box now.

upgrade is awsome but with all these friggen new toys its taken me 2 days to figure everything out. it took me about 4 hours to figure out hooking up the blue tooth phone and pairing it to the pioneer head unit. the thing was you have to go into the lg phone and have it go into discover mode which it does for 60 seconds. after i figured out that it worked so easy once you set it to the head unit it finds it everytime.
i promise i will send photos soon

the jl audio speakers and the subwoofer really hit hard and thumb awsome.

i am still trying to figure out how to lower the bass cause its knocking me out

^^BUMP^^

Just wanted to bump this up to the top again. I'm thinking about getting the Pioneer
Avic D3 for my 987. My biggest reason is that I want to be able to play my Ipod in my car, and have satellite radio. I already have a portable TomTom for nav, which is great by the way, so I guess this will just be nav system number two. But I really don't like too many of the single din head units. I would really appreciate it if those of you that have aftermarket radio's in your 987 would post pics.

Also, anyone with Bose ugrade just the head unit? how did that go? Thanks!

Yes... bump... I'd like to see pics of the enclosure...

Slowly my mind turns to what I can do with my stereo setup... I'd like a bit more volume out of it, and some low end. Doesn't need to thump like a rapper's car, since I don't listen to that crap, but a nice bassline in some hard rock is good to hear!

Check out my thread. I have a 986 with the Bose upgrade and I put in the AVIC D3.
