Nice pics Ruined! Thanks for the help. You were in your glory this past weekend The stereo sounds great on the highway. I find I need to fade more to the rears to get better sound with the top down. Looks like Preppy and I will be installing the '04 exhaust upgrade this Sunday.

S-cargo - could you give us a review on the s-pods? What is it like having one channel behind your head instead of two?

One thing i was on the fence about from a staging standpoint - as pathetic as the stock headrest speakers are i thought there was stereo tweeters in each headrest as compared to having the left channel behind the driver and the right behind the passenger. But everybody that gets the s pods seems to not be bothered by it. How did you tweak your set up?
I am planning on some audio upgrades this week so your feedback is much appreciated!

We have the S pods. Best mod EVA to our car. The front speakers are still the Honda stock, the S pods were bought from a member here who made them. They go in the roll hoops. Some folks bought Honda rear speakers for the S which fit behind the seat. They don't hold a candle to the S pod set up from what we've heard. The speakers in the S pods were purchased from a local stereo shop. We also added a small amp and one of the young VT guys put it this way "You guys are rockin."
You can adjust the speakers, front to rear, etc., depending on if you are top down, top up, highway or whatever. The best part is that you CAN hear the stereo, even top down on the highway.
