Hay EM that is the same head unit that I will be using in my car. I think that it is the best on the market. What frontstage ae you running the two or three way? I have a set of the 136ws just laying around at my house. I am waiting for CES befor I tear the car apart Focal is changing there crossovers and tweeters on their Utopia line this year. I am also running a seperate 6.5" screen just below the Head unit to run my Gauges. Both HKS and Greedy have a peice but have not been imported to the states. I have been trying to figure out how to remove the whole rear seat so I can build my custom enclosure and still have evey thing look dead stock.

The focals subs in the door hit really good for a stock enclosures..
First the deck is a Kenwood 910 DVD/TV 6 1/2" LCD Screen..
The screen folds away
The Brain is hidden underneath the passenger seat.. And the antennas for the TV are behind the window pillars..
The front & rear speakers were replaced with Focal 100V2 component's 4" woofers with 1" tweeters.. The factory enclosures had to be modified for the Focal's to fit, also some glueing was involved.
They sound great!! So much better then stock!
What a perfect time to paint the screws that are used on the speaker grills..
In order to get some additional Bass. I bought the upgraded speaker enclosures that fit into the door panels, I then replaced the factory speakers with the Focal 5WS 5" woofer... These sound awesome! Excellent bass from a 5" woofer.. very impressive.. rock songs sound the best, when R&B Music is on the bass needs to be turned down..

The amp is a Phoenix Gold 500.4 A 4 channel amp with enough power to run everything..the factory carpet was ordered and will be replaced when it comes in..
Also I removed the factory CD Changer and replaced it with the Kenwood music Keg made by Phatnoise... This is the best thing made since slice bread I upgraded the hard drive to a 60gig which holds about 800 Cd's..

All depends on how much you want to spend and if you have a good local stereo shop. I don't even want to tell you guys how much I have in my system, but when you add things like a 15" monitor in the front boot so you can watch DVD's while hangin at the track things add up fast!
