I figured to make it easy to view different installs in one thread I would start this, and stick it so it becomes a easy point of reference.

List your system components and then add pictures.

Thanks,

i've seen some of it before -- but it's nice to see the whole setup! you're install was definitely an inspiration for mine.
it looks phenomenal!
love those dual HX2's... i bet you feel that...

good show PAS2KNut!!

 

yo. Alpine headunits in da house.

is it me, or are Alpines the most popular headunits for S2000s. is there any particular reason-- like compatability w/ DJ Qube's audio controls or is it just because Alpine is the best?

for me, looks-wise the Alpine's are kinda ho-hum, but since it's behind the radio door, looks don't really matter. I'd take quality over looks anyday (except when it comes to girlies-- then it'z a coin toss )

as far as looks, the Blaupunkt San Francisco or Munchen are more to my taste, altho the quality isn't as good as other headunits. I do like that they have the keycard technology, which lets you secure the headunit simply by removing a "key card" (like a credit card) from the unit, rather than having to take off the entire face. you can keep the key card in your wallet. but I have the Munchen in my beater CRX, and they start having issues a bit too quickly for my tastes/budget. they also get really really HOT.

nice installs, btw. I especially like Sleepy's slick iPod integration.
