I already have a 10" lux box just sitting in my trunk making my mpg worse. I got $75 off, so I couldn't pass it up even if I wasnt going to have equipment to put in it.

good. now get a JL 3w3 10" when you have the cash.

a quick search shows those are a like $200? Am I right?

Little pricey for me probably. I may be able to get a discount from a friend at Best Buy though.

yup but good shit is really worth it. like going GC over JOM. i paid $207.22 for the sub, $188.18 for Alpine CDE-HD148BT, and $192.97 MRX-M50 mono amp. and im not even getting an amp for the 4 on this car. toss in the faseners, wires etc and luke box and im well over 1k. but in the end, everything sounds so good

I would hope I could get at least a headunit before I make my trip up north again for thanksgiving.

I will see how things work out. I prefer to do things right the first time if I can so I don;t have to go back and upgrade

[oliver.r]

Im gonna do a few more things besided that.
polish itbs, re-do the valve cover/air plenum, polish the water metal pipes, tuck the wires etc...

Hagerty denied me, stating drivers licensed under ten years must have a flawless driving record. I have one speeding ticket from 12/12, licensed for 5 yrs

Applied w/ Grundy, Leland-West, American Modern Insurance Group, Geico,
Infinity Classic Collectors, Condon Skelly just now, we shall see what they say.

CS snapshot...seems cheap, gotta wait for underwriting to contact me back.
