Default C3 sound bar?

Anyone using the C3 sound bar that's sold by many vendors? If so how is the sound quality?
Thanks

We've installed this one twice in the last year... loved the sound. The bar can be mounted with friction fit or by drilling holes too. Both installations were done using an amp too.

Another thing, the bar comes with a cross flag screened on it now and we removed it with some thinner, then dyed the center the interior color of the car. There is enough center section left when you cut it to do three centers if you choose do mix it up.

I have had one for a couple of years now, Powered by a high power JVC head unit, with Corvette Central's front dash speakers. Quite happy with the sound quality.

I like the sound and the space it saved.
Installed in a convertible.
