yeah man check on ebay. the head unit and 6's look good but i don't think the 6x9's are worth that.

Those 6x9s are NOT worth that, you can pick the same ones up at walmart for like 23.99 and you dont have to pay shipping. The head is pretty good, and the 6.5s arent too terrible, but those 6x9s are way beyond bad.... If you lived over here, I could get you a Pioneer head, pioneer 6.5s, and blapunkt 6x7s for only $175 installed. I could probably talk the guy out of a pair of tweeters, capacitors, and a noise filter for no extra charge, but the car has to be there to get the deal because he doesnt trust very many people not to go sell the stuff like it was new.....

I just bought a RockfordFosgate, 100x4 unit for 130.00 at a local place for my van, no stereo in the luv couldn't hear it anyway. Where I'm at Stereo shops are on almost every corner though and stuff is pretty cheap.
Keep looking.

in my luv i have coffee can speakers. NO KIDING they are coffee cans cut in half and some speaker custom fit into them. i just put speakers out of a sterio i found in my grage but they were the best loudest speakers i have ever had in my luv. they finally blew up when my amp wire poped off and hit my sub wires, and some how it poped my coffee can speakers. so now i have some cheap 6x9 that i havnt even hooked up and i have to replace my subs to.:( but the coffee can speakers are awesome and i still have them instaled but they dont work and i think im going to buy some speakers to put into them and get em workin again!!

I bought a Kenwood MP3 player at circuit city a cople of years ago and i payed 200 dollars for it. Also you can check e-bay but check the profile of person selling and check what there charging for shipping. They will really stick to you sometimes

You can try crutchfield.com, they are a little on the pricy side but more than make up for it in customer service. Just my .02

Good buy on car audio and head units I think they have a decent componet system for about $50 right now. I buy all my audio for here, top shelf call support and products.

You could do what was done to my 72 Luv. Cut the cab and the bed to fit a sealed box through them that held 4, 10" subs. That might solve the lack of music!!

I used to work at Rockford Fosgate many many years ago and for nostalgia purposes have saved my old school Punch 75 and Punch 45 amps. A simple set of 8 inch punch woofers and a set of 6.5 front speakers will roundout the audio experience.

Will post pictuers when done.
