My stock system is poppin so i want to upgrade. Who sells a complete system ...speakers sub an head unit. I dont want to waste time sending in my bezel so what are my options. Is a shallow mount 12" sub that much better than a 10" shallow mount sub? Ill need 4speakers hu an a sub with amp. Are there any packages. Also I would like tweeters on my dash.

What are my options?

Contact Dennis at Double D Mods. He can set you up with whatever type of system / combination you are looking for.

OPTIONS are almost unlimited...you need to have a goal, and budget...
Dennis @ Double D is AWESOME... You WILL have to modify your bezel...

Once you have an idea what you want and a budget figure he can point you to the best options available. You can look through his web site to see the many choices he has and if you don't find exactly what you have in mind he can put a package together for your specific needs.
Are there audio shops that Double D has a relationship with so that installation isn't a problem? (Thanks)

Dennis has not been able to find people with the same passion, focus and customer service that makes him such a good vendor.. he has tried in the past but it's impossible to find good people.
Dennis is very busy and IM not his spokes person, but I'm trying to help you.. IM guessing you are uncomfortable trying to do this yourself and are looking for someone as qualified as Dennis to install it for you... Many people took on this project with little experience and were successful.. Its mostly plug and play.. with a little bit of technical skill to remove the bezel and to grind off some rivets with a dremel... Dennis provides every thing for a plug an play install, so I would think that any competent local shop could install a unit for you.
Good luck
Bill aka ET

Sorry bout that, my bad... What I meant was the OEM headunit is a DIN and 1/2... so a single din won't just plug and play, but, you don't have to "modify" your bezel....
