Jason,
Here is what I did with mine... Hope it gives you a few ideas...
Sony CD player/changer controller...
Polk Audio EX502a 5 1/4" coax. (front doors)
Polk Audio EX572a 5" x 7" coax (rear corners)
SAS Bazooka RS 6 1/2" powered subwoofer (RS is much better than the old
EL's)
as for the Polk speaker installs, I bought adapters from Circuit City that
just plug into the factory speaker harnesses and then to the speaker...
made it much easier!!
I got my stereo installed by my brother...he used to work at an Audio
place... Circuit City installed my sub for me...
Circuit City and Best Buy both have some good deals from time to time...just
take your time finding the right deal...
Hope this helps a little,
Tom "Slick"

I was thinking about replacing my trucks current factory stereo system with
a much nicer one. I am partial to Pioneer systems and have choosen all
Pioneer components. The kind of music that I listen to is Country, pop,
rock, hip hop. I would like to know what you think about my choices and the
prices and if you know somewhere I could get everything for cheaper, either
online or a store, such as Circuit City, Best Buy, Car Toys, etc. I live in
the Portland, Oregon area. Keep in mind that with Crutchfield you get a free
wiring harness and custom installation instructions. Though wiring harnesses
are not expensive and installation is usually not difficult. I would also
like to know what sort of wires I will need that are not supplied or are
better than the ones included with the items below.
