Very nice setup, congrats!
How did you connect the front speakers to the head unint? AFAIK the front tweeters and woofers are conncted to the stock amp separately and dont have a crossover.

did he just use your stock speakers, or did you buy new ones.

If they are the stock ones, how do they sound compared to the stock system. I know you dont have the sub working but is the sound from the other speakes decent. I need to do this in my wifes car and need to know if i have to order speakers too or if she can get decent sound from the stock speakers.

thanks

i don't have stock navi so i never had the steering wheel buttons... But I would like to have them... However, I don't think they'll work because I don't think I noticed anything control wires for the F90BT....

Ok so the next part of the question is do you remember him taking the door panels off to re wire to your stock speakers or was he able to tap them from in the dash.

thanks

he tapped all the wires under the driver seat, where my stock amp was and behind the dash and what was it. Not door panels were removed.

MACH3EVO, if you are thinking of BT, my GSR w/SSS doesn't come with BT. I think only lancer and evo MR comes with BT...
