Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I've had a quote of about CA$1600 to replace speakers/sub locally but specifics weren't given.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Searched the forums and can't really find a definitive answer for my specific priorities. What sort of pain is one in for if one has a 2003 that has essentially nothing but a single CD stereo in it from factory. Would like (in priority order)...the mandatory list ends at "Sub" - Aux in for mp3 player - Better speakers - Sub - New head unit - Sirius satellite - MP3 CD I've had a quote of about CA$1600 to replace speakers/sub locally but specifics weren't given. What are my options for head units? From what I gather if I want to replace the entire system (which it appears I do) I'd have to gut the entire thing. True?

POST 2Original post

Brock - do an Advanced search on "threads started by User" and then enter Newport996 . He had a great write up on his replacement of the entire system.

POST 3Original post

Your big obstacle will be the optical connection from factory head unit to factory amp in front trunk. Wiring from speakers to factory amp is the usual OEM speaker wire. So... - Aux in would require Dension unit or new head unit or FM modulator - Better speakers could be done easily if you're OK with factory wires - Sub: Now you're going to need a new amp/head unit so job is getting bigger - Sirius is easy with Dension or wired-FM modulator.
