Well I decided it was time to get a sound system back so I bought up some parts on ebay and got the rest done at a local shop.

For a headunit I went with an alpine 9833 (23 watts RMS, bypassed monsoon amp)

I got a brand new 10w3v3. To JL guys this means something, brand new woofer model for 2006. I had 3v2's in my old red firebird and I'm VERY happy with the way these v3's hit. For an amp I obviously went with JL again, and got a mono 250 watt amp.

headunit cost me 135

I paid 900 for the box, sub, amp, all the wires, installation, and tax. So I think I made out pretty well

so for a 1,000 dollar sound system i'm ~very~ happy.

Looks good man. Still stock speakers besides the sub in the hatch?

I wanted to make a sub box like that and shove the 10" spare i got in it. I got fosgate 6.75 componets in the front, stock 6.5 subs on the side, and cerwin vega 5.25 componets in the rear panels. sounds good for how much i drive the car.

Clean installation on yours..

Btw, what are the hooks for on the back shelf behind the seats ...

At least thats what I think I remember from when I changed my springs / shocks

I should have thought of that. They're all over the back seat of my truck. Stupid me......
