Alpine bluetooth head unit with Infinity 6.5" speakers is the rear and Sony 4x6 in the doors.

Also a 500 watt amp powering a 10" Alpine type R Sub woofer.

Not if you are careful. You can lift the seal up and pull the vinyl out.

Working on mine as we speak. JVC with Ipod. Porsche 10 speaker system and keeping the original 4x6 speakers. I'm sure an amp is soon to follow.

Have a Blaupunkt Melbourne SD27, a tuner and SD card player or iPod/MP3 player thru a jack, no CD player at all. I LOVE not having any CDs or cassettes to deal with. Not a fan of the volume control (digital up/down buttons, I like a ****) but otherwise nice. Newer such players are better. I have a real nice Alpine that plays off flash drives in the Mustang, very powerful.

Curt P I love that setup. That is awesome. If you don't mind how much did that run? Did you install yourself.

What I think I am looking for is iPhone/iPod compatibility, along with maybe a CD player, not required though. I was thinking of maybe putting a flip out DVD screen in it, but I didn't know how it would look, like if the shifter would get in the way or what? It may not even be worth it.

Keep it coming guys.
