Today I changed out the factory head unit with a new Alpine cde-124sxm. I went with this model Alpine because it has everything included for XM radio reception. I did the install with my son but did not make up the wire harness, I had a stereo shop do that. Cost for the wire harness was $25 including the wire harness kit. As a lot of you guys know a radio install in the S2000 is about the most easy install to do, the job took about an hour and most of that time was used on the XM antenna location. Once I figured out where best to locate it I moved along with the rest of the job easy. The new Alpine gets great radio reception as well as XM reception. This was a great first mod and is a night and day improvement over the factory radio. Next job will be installing the Boston Pro components in the doors

 

Nice!

 

puddy, for how many year you've waited before you did this?

 

What's with your seats?

 

This is a "new to me" NFR 2000 S2000, I just bought it a couple weeks ago I sold my 02 Suzuka about a year and a half ago. I love this car it is so nice, it had just turned 38k miles and has never been modified

They are cheapO seat covers, the factory leather is a 9 and bolsters are a10 in condition

 

puddy get with me when your ready to do your door speakers, you really need to sound deaden the doors, - night and day - and i now stock 80mil deadener that is great.

 

I will get with you on that

 

Nice install Puddy. When you do the speakers if the components have seperated tweeters try setting them up on the dash and give a listen. I installed my Alpine components up there and they sound amazing. Cannot even tell they are up there mounted them in the recess by the defroster vents.

 

Is the spray on stuff any good? and do you do the back of the door card or just the metal door frame?

 

I was thinking 2005 or newer door panels because the tweet covers blend in with the interior nice. Before I go for the panels I will try your setup on the dash. If you can please post a pic or 2 of your tweeter setup thanks
