and after having all my speakers but one stop working, I deceided it was time to upgrade, (and match my blue dash) So ultimatly I was forced to run all new speaker wire, wich was a pain! but after the Pioneer head unit and Kenwood speakers, I love it!

Cool stereo! Which model number is it? Does it hold more than one CD? Been thinking of replacing the factory one-random feature doesn't work on burned cd's.

It only holds one CD. It has built in bluetooth and sat radio capabilities. The bluetooth was my main selling point, and of course it has an AUX input so i can rock my mp3's. I installed the mic for the bluetooth on the top of my A pillar, and when im talking to people on it, they say it sounds perfect, Its nice to be able to listen to music as loud as i want, but when someone calls, it switches to the call and the callers name pops up on the receiver. Im very happy with it so far.

Nice stereo and tires! I just upgraded my stereo as well to match my dashboard light change. lol I think saw that radio at a store near me at Car Toys. I liked it but was too expensive for me. I mean, I have been laid off for over 2 years now. :( That did seem like a great radio! I looked at it a few times in the store. :mrgreen:
I ended up going with a Kenwood. Just holds one CD but my iPod connects to the back and is hidden so it's pretty nice. I usually only listen to my iPod anyway so it works out. [smilie=bunny.gif]

Yeah I wanted to actually have a nice stereo in my vehicle for the first time, so I spent a little more, I bought it online new for like 280. And the kenwood speakers were half the price on this website here!! as they were when i looked around on crutchfield.com Im Glad i went with Sonic's website, very fast shipping and good customer support, and very nice prices!!!!!

Steve,

Where did you get a sunglasses bin (below the 2-DIN stereo receiver) that came in black rather than silver?

I believe the answer to my own question is that you have the Sport and not the Turbo?

I finally did a stereo in mine also. Got a USB drive Pioneer head unit, component speakers in the front, coaxels in the rear doors and a amp/10" sub in the rear "access hatch" area. Will try and post pics because I have to make the sub box "fit" behind the rear seat, and that will probally turn some of you off from this route. Sounds great so its worth the trouble. That double din is smooooth looking in your dash!
