Got back a little late to post pics, etc. - but I was pretty stoked after it was all completed. I absolutely love this new system! I'll have to post my pics and comments later, but I wholeheartedly will recommend Dave (DPG) and Greg (pentavolvo) for stereo advice and installation.

More later...

i put a eclispe dvd/nav unit in mine. they are a all in one unit...no hide away piece in the trunk. this can have a ipod, game system and back up camera installed as well. for sub i got a jl audio 8w7 with a jl 250/1 amp in a ported box made from jl specs. i am running jl speakers up front and in the bakc off the hed unit. this set up gets loud, is clear and has great bass. no one believes it is just a 8 when they hear it

Greg and DPG, any suggestions for a C6 with Nav? I'd like to replace the speakers, maybe put in an amp and an IPOD connection.
