Audio upgrade $1k

Hey guys..05 couple. 70k miles...still excellent

I've hesitated to do any upgrades on the audio but feel it's time now I'm just an old rock and roll guy

I would like to upgrade my audio system with the deck amps and speakers but I really wanna have my steering controls work ..

nothing to high end..
I have a friend that is former installer..
any suggestions?

Get some good speakers and a good head unit.

Bypass the amplifier and have the head unit directly power the speakers.

Get a Metra ASWC-1 adapter to retain your steering wheel controls.

You've been around for a while here so I'm surprised you haven't been through this thread, it will answer literally any question you might have about a DD replacement.
