JAMES a FEW QUESTIONS: sorry if they have been answered already!

1. You kept the stock system in--or did you remove it?
2. Can you list your full "Non-Stock" components you have added.
3. Can you please describe how they were set-up. (if you know) for example, You pulled out the stock AMP and added your own, etc.
4. I dont know what other questions right now because im tired (will update later)

-paul


1. Kept my stock system
2. 2 Rockford Fosgate T2 subwoofers with 2 US amps, 2 Caps and 2 batteries
3. A litle confused on this question but, a wire was run to my main battery, the frequency taken from my stock subwoofer, nothing was really taken out...
4. OK

I know I'm stating the obvious (hopefully) but different people have different preferences. If one person thinks Pamela Anderson is hot and another thinks she looks like an [insert negative description here], is one of them necessarily right and the other wrong? I certainly have my opinion but I don't think someone who thinks differently is wrong, or is a bad person, or that they're 'f'ing up their car' in this particular case.

However, I do think it's wrong (correctly or not ) for someone to think that their opinion should be the only one.
