The numbers do sound rather cheap, but this ebayer sells plenty of OEM Porshce parts. What do you guys think?

i've bought from DPS before, they are defintely good
at that price, i would think they are just getting rid of the part at cost or below cost

As for the Ebay/DPC Porsche OEM speaker upgrade, don't bother, they are still the crappy OEM speakers, just more of them. If your are going to spend $500 there are much better alternatives.

In your guys opinion what would you recommend? What would be the best DVD unit to get out there right now? The one I have sitting in my room is the Alpine W505. I have a few days left to return it if there's better value/quality ones out there!

Stock nav headunit, JL 500/5 under a false floor, Critical Mass components in stock locations including a 10" sub with 5" deep fiberglass enclosure in passenger footwell. Didn't compromise any foot space as my wife is petite, and also, did not have to sacrifice the rear seats at all. Sub hits hard. I like them better than the JL 10" subs in my H2. Thinking of adding tweets in rear view mirror for improved center staging. Can hear the system loud and CLEAR with top down @ 80 mph!
