Talking Getting a "SteetEffectz" upgrade!

Well, I'm down for the audio upgrade. Ron is going to replace my door speakers with Pioneer Premium PRS speakers (He is going to have to modify the doors to get them in), add an 8" subwoofer in the trunk, and an Alpine MRD-F752 . It's 75 x 4 and 250 x 1 into the 5th channel.

The best part of the deal is that I trust that the work will be done by someone who knows WTF they are doing!

As usual, I'll post a few pictures and a review when it's done. Should be in 2 weeks!

Can a get a "Woo-Hoo" from anyone?

Woo Hoo!!!!!!

Keep us updated on the install. I have 8 month old Polk Components in my Accord which I want to transfer into the TL-S if possible, along with a 10 inch sub(although Id prefer a sub I would be able to mount in the factory position).

Woo hoo for you Jon. I know how you feel. Ron just did my system a few weeks ago and it is awesome. I have a 12" sub with custom box and a 1000 watt amp. Boy does that amp pump. My whole freakin trunk and windows were rattling. He had to add insulation to keep it from shaking so much.
BTW, are you going to the Park Ave Acura meet? Will it be done by then?

Thanks Guys for the "Whoo-Hoo's"!

BlackShadow - I was planning on going to the Park Ave Meet, but got derailed by a "family event" that I cannot get out of.
I am truely depressed about that.

imax - Acura3200 has a life, he just loves his car. I've seen his car, and I can't blame him. These TL's (and TL-S's) have a way of taking over a part of your life. You all know it!

Mr. Hyde said "although Id prefer a sub I would be able to mount in the factory position" Yeah, I agree, but the springs or tension bars for the trunk lid pass directly under the Bose SubWoofer, which is only about 3" deep (That's the whole problem), so changing that speaker is futile!
There is no clearence....
