So I am about ready to pull the trigger on a G35X and I want the premium package (for the intelli key, etc). I can already tell that the Bose "premium" system isn't going to cut it for me and I am looking for some ideas.

I have the following components in my current car:

Boston Z6 Components (up front)
Boston ProSeries 6.5" coaxial
Boston 10" Competitor Sub
Alpine 5 channel amp

Here's my ideas:

1) Keep stock BOSE headunit, replace front speakers with my Boston Z6's, leave everything else alone (run off of Bose Amp)

2) Keep Stock BOSE headunit, replace front speakers, keep rear speakers, replace subwoofer, replace BOSE amp.

3) Totally new system including headunit, possibly keep rear speakers..

So how much of a pain in the *** would the options above be? Is the problem with the BOSE the headunit, speakers, amp or does all of it suck?

Thanks!

 

It's not so much the pain in the ***...it's the cost. I kept the Bose HU and replaced EVERYTHING else. It could use an EQ. Best option is probably replace everything, but you need a double DIN kit ($$). Might I suggest using the search function...I see this is your first post. This topic is a VERY common one on this forum.

 

Thanks for the answer- yes I am searching as well....
