An Update on our Audio Update...
I have been working on Lori's car for the past couple of weeks and finally have had time to upload the pic's of the work. Here are some pic's of the before Audio in her Vette.
Flush mount Sub and First attempt Amp box...
Alpine HU... and Pro Clip moount for her GPS...
Out with the old...
Brackets removed...
Fab'd up some brackets to mount the new Kenwood 8120 HU..
New HU Installed...
I installed a SubThump Stealth Sub box with an ED 12 inch Sub, Dual Voice Coil. I mounted the two Alpine PDX Amps on the back wall of her coupe. The one for the four main speaklers is a 4 Channel 150 watt per channel amp and the other is a mono amp at 600 watts for the sub...
Being that I didn't have the amp box any more I was able to bring back out her cargo mats with her screen name on it....
I even replaced all main speakers in the car with Polk Audio Speakers rated at 300 Watts each...

Wayne looking great! I bet she will love this! Just like my car looks fast standing still, this work of yours looks LOUD from just the pictures 
I can't wait to hear this in person very soon!
You are so doing my Z06's system. Infact I think it will be the first mod I will do to it AFTER twin turbo and built 427

The 8120 ROCKS I love mine. Especially with the Back up camer Oak did for me. I love it. I hooked up the IPOD thru a Spec Dock in the factory cup holder. It works Great. I just need to load all my CDs.
Enjoy
