Default New stereo, speakers, headlights

I looked for a couple of years at all the options to upgrade the sound in my 2006 LX 470out there and did not like buggy android stereos. I finally found a solution that worked for me. I had professionally installed a Pioneer DMH-WT8600NEX 10.1 inch head unit. Most installer shops did not want to deal with it but I finally found one that could figure out what to do and I now have Apple CarPlay and awesome sound! I had them install Focal Expert PS 165F3 speakers in the front and Focal Expert PC 165F in the rear doors. I also had them install a 4 channel amp for the speakers. Plus I added 2 JL W3 subwoofers in a custom box in the back. The Subs are driven by a JL Slash amp. It was expensive, but this care deserves great sound. To complete the set up, I added Manicci floor mats and Eagle Eyes LED headlights.

Meticulous! Your interior looks amazing. I like the look of the Manicci carpets and mats. How is the quality and fit? What exactly did you order? I cannot figure out from the Manicci website. Thanks.
