Default Alpine INA-W900BT double DIN installed

Well I finished installing everything I have right now.

Alpine INA-W900BT
Alpine KTP-445 inline amplifier
Polk DXi-6500 component front speakers
Polk DXi 650 rear speakers

Will likely be adding the alpine imprint next. Sounds pretty good and the functionality of the unit is awesome. I bought the INA-W900BT on Amazon for $600 from a vendor brand new ($1250 MSRP, still $999 at Best Buy today), unfortunately it was the last one in stock from the vendor. So far I'm very pleased. Might possibly add an 8" free air sub in the factory spot, but we'll see. I'm pretty happy with the bass from the Polks right now. More pics once I clean up the car some more.

Very nice, very clean install. How well does the black bezel around the head unit match with the original plastics? Because from the pictures, it looks nearly OEM.

It is near identical, it's the Scosche faceplate. Fitment isn't 100% perfect yet but once I modify it the fitment should be near perfect.

Looks fantastic! I hate seeing threads like this though... So much money [I don't have] that I'd like to spend on my es300! lol

Thanks guys. So far this car has been a GREAT winter "beater" (huge upgrade from my old Tercel), and at $3000 it was a steal with 145k and zero issues (I put new front sway links on, that's it)/mint condition.

I also just leatheriqued the interior with fantastic results.
