Any place for audio help?
Hi all.
Recently purchased an '04 Coupe 6-spd w/ Nav (and really happy with the buy
), and decided the first (of very few) mod is going to start off with audio. Really irks me that the 6-cd changer in the G's aren't mp3 capable (at least the 03-04's if I researched it correctly), but waddya gonna do?
Going to be purchasing a new HU, but as far as after that... I'm pretty clueless. I've heard people say "go with DD", but as far as HU go, I want to stay on the single DIN side... Kinda on a budget, and I don't really do much driving to enjoy the lovely features of a vivid screen. As far as the "cubbyhole", I don't really mind that either.
If at all possible, I'd like to keep my NAV, steering wheel controls, etc, all stock. Which brings me to another problem. Crutchfield states that I'll be loosing my NAV and have to change my climate controls. Is there no other way to keep everything the way it is and just add the damn receiver?
(As far as SIRIUS or SAT, I don't really care about those)
I just want the new HU installed for now (changing 6 cd's at a time is driving me
)... Not focusing on adding a sub or amp just yet.
I'm in the Sac-town area but willing to drive out to the Bay-area wilderness. Anyone know of a person who can install (will compensate!) or a good shop Someone please shed some light!
