OK, you need a pro. if you don't have any type of navigation, go aftermarket... I hope when you bought the car they told you it had flood damage... otherwise your good deal is a good deal for who ever sold it to you... or maybe it just got wet... either way, aftermarket is pretty easy in it, it will be less than $7k and depending the features you want... anyting is possible... by the way, changers are becoming outdated, look into an iPod, that way everything is on 1 unit, backed up by your computer.

What area of town you are at (city and state) I can direct you to a pro in your area or within 50 miles of you.

Good Luck

 

The car have no flood dmage i check the trunk and only part is rust is were the cd changer be with the amp is .yes i have the navie and i will like to keep the head unit if possibile i live in philly pa. The amp only plays rear speakers and the fiber optic part to connect to the changer is broke. Im not out to break the bank on getting some good music in the car.I just want all the speakers to work and some cd action .I been there done that with subs and 3k rims now im all growned up

 

try this guy, he was from a referral from an ultra secret group of industry insiders

Ask for Steve, and he was referred by the Critical Mass/Icon rep

 

Thanks Esoteric but those guys are rip offs they like to charge a arm and a leg that's were all the drug delears go!

 

Well if they do great work, I would hope that they charge more than average. Unfortunately, drug dealers are a fact of life, my view of them isn't kind and wish the world was rid of them, unfortunately they are like cockroaches.

I will see what elseI can do

 

A good friend of mine that works for Galphin's Pimp MY Ride team recommended these guys, hope they are close
