dont buy jensen. there is a reason that jenson products are so cheap, they break easily.
If you are set on a full din setup for 100$ more you can get this one

its made by kenwood, they have a much better record for making quality car audio.

I have always wanted to get a 7" touch screen LCD and a carputer.
But I've either had the nice car to do it and no money, or a shitty car and enough money. So it just never worked out for me.

Ask almost anyone in car audio and they will tell you to avoid Jensen! You will be using this everyday, it will be worth it to pay the extra cash for a nice one.

As much as I dislike Jensen products, that is a pretty clean install. People should post pictures of their systems! I want to see what I'm up against. wink

What did I do a few months back? No matter, cause I'm putting the finishing touches on my set up now. Prepare to weep! D

I have that same headunit, goof. That along with the iPod adapter.
Ya, my adapter goes through the glove box, didn't take a pic of that. I don't like how hard it is to find songs with it though (
gmario
24-06-2007 15:07:30
are those L7's? and what kind of car you got those on goof?
No, there 12" L5's. And I have a 00 Grand Am

Yea.. my adapter goes through the glove box as well )
And you're right, it is kind of slow browsing through artists/songs, but it works nonetheless. Playlists help too.
I wanted 2 L7's but I knew a guy sellings these, and it was local, and it was cheaper so I took this. And Bruman, where abouts in MI you live? I'm half hour from GR

I remember you now, you little terd! You were impatient and jumped the gun and after it all, you ended up with a free green and I ended up with squat. Wonderful memories.
Goof, what are you running for mids and highs? Is it using deck power? Regardless, I think your setup would stomp mine in SPL which makes me a little sad. cry Anyways, I invested a TON of time in fiberglass work and I'm pretty happy with the results. I'll post pic's tomorrow.
Everything else is stock, and it uses deck power. I keep looking at the classifieds on a audio forum I go to but I don't wanna waste any more money before College so I doubt I upgrade it.
