What is in there as far as speakers, do you have bose speakers with bose amps etc.

Is the new radio a bose radio?

You are in spring grove, im in palatine about 45 min away. I used to pro install till I decided school was smarter choice now I do installs on the side, and vettes for fun. Ive done a few forum members C5's and i have done my share of C4 work as well. Let me know id be more then willing to get together with you this weekend bust out some diagrams, multimeter, soldering iron and go to town. You buy me lunch we call it a deal.
