True story, i don't have kids, but i have a plt. of Boots..... so they are basically my kids right? They roughly ruin 1 to 2 weekends a month.

 

Not an nco but then again who is in infantry haha but I do have a kid and I know how that is

 

I had already posted what all I'm getting on here but I figured id ask everyone what head unit they are using and which they recommend? I plan on going to windward audio also

 

try head unit first before you get speakers (unless you are talking bout amp n sub). the stock speakers rock and I still have mines, getting an aftermarket unit makes it seem like you added some better speakers, VERY noticeable difference from stock head unit. Get a deck from amazon, it is WAYYYYY cheaper then what you would pay from an audio shop. a few years ago I picked up a 940bt + pac steering wheel adapter + pac add a amp + din install kit all (harness/plastic trim) for less than 750 shipped (amazon free super saver)... quotes I received from places in cali were 799-1200 for deck alone, 60-110 for steering wheel adapter, 30-80 for the add a amp, 40-120 for din install kit. installing a stereo in our cars are a breeze! if a deck is all you are doing, buy me some lunch and we can get it done in the parking lot of where ever you want to buy. and when we are done you can let others know a nco from the army helped you save hundreds, LOL

 

I've installed tons of sound systems before, I used to goto national competitions with a buddy who was sponsored by sundown audio and those were some crazy competitions, my buddy was pushing 165db at the port haha you can look him up on YouTube (Robert charico), anyway I haven't really dealt with navigation units that's where most of my concern comes from, is your 940bt a navigation unit? Also did you run a sub or should I just stick with the stock speakers and call it a day?

Could be fun to hang out and install so I'll let you know when taxes come back and if your interested I'll buy lunch

 

Just ordered my v3 hope it's as cool as it looks, my v2 recently stopped working so I'm excited to get it

 

It has navigation unit. I was originally running a 10" solobaric L7 sub along with stock speakers. I wanted more room in the trunk (sedan), so I got rid of the 10 and now have a 8" L7 with stock cpeakers, doesn't hit nearly as hard as the 10, but its good enough for my old *** and now have the ability to put assault pack, tuff box, and a few other things in the trunk without having to take the box out.

here is the deck.. I currently have buttons in red to match dash and gauges. it also has Pandora ap. I Bluetooth my phone to the deck and am able to control Pandora from deck, thumbs up/thumbs down songs without having to mess with phone. my only complaint is my maps are out of date so it doesn't find unless I put in address. a lot of the newer housing establishments are also hard to find... maybe I just need to update?

 

Just got my EWG and EL manifold from Josh @IIR
