Double Din Stereo Install W/Amp and 3 ways

[Spyder_Man]

Thanks for sharing. I’m contemplating a full stereo overhaul on my 2003 S. It only has the headunit and dash speakers (minimum spec). No door speakers and no external amp. The OEM setup makes my ears hurt if I use it.

I’m contemplating an active setup as follows:

Front (dash): two active 2-way tweeters and 4” mids in the dash.

Rear (BOSE Subwoofer box): two active 2.5” tweeters/mid-tweeters, and two active 5.25” mid-woofers wired in parallel as the “subwoofer.”

DSP plus 7 or 8 channels of amplified power (probably via two amps and requiring a capacitor).

I’m debating with either installing a double DIN unit like you did or omitting the head unit all together via a Bluetooth enabled amplifier with music/navigation via iPhone.

I’ll do my best to document it all when I finally take it on.
