Audio Upgrades
Discussion
I've posted this on SELOC too, so apologies if you've already seen this!
I'm quite tempted to upgrade the audio system in my 111S. I know it's never going to be fantastic, considering the small size of the interior, but I was hoping for a bit of extra bass!
The first question is, does anyone know what the standard spec speakers were for the MY02 111S? I seem to have some Pioneer Kevlar speakers in the front, and some Infinity Reference in the rear. Are these standard fit?
I'm looking for a discreet subwoofer to fit in the passenger foot well, as it's a bit busy behind my seats with harness bars n' stuff! From other threads, it looks as though the Alpine SWT-1600 was the subwoofer of choice, but it's no longer available. What do people use now? I've found two that might fit the bill ...

Also, I'm tempted by a large touchscreen head unit, which will allow me to control my iPod. The only thing I'm concerned about is, will the mechanism clear the overhang of the dashboard, when it's installed? Is it possible to mount the headunit further out of the housing, so the screen clears the dash?
Thinking of one of these - Super chavvy, I know!

Any thoughts, or recommendations welcome! Cheers!

Nooo, think of the weight! You'll lose 20BHP carrying all that ste around! You won't hear the true values anyway. Save your dosh, buy new boots for it or on upgrades.
Just my thoughts.
Haha! It's getting new AD07's next month anyway, and I'm at the point where any other upgrades aren't worth it (either HP-wise, or talent-wise). Just my thoughts.
