HU has no Navigation system; just XM and steering wheel controls. 09 Elantra, JL hd 750 amp, JL metawire install kit for 2 amps, 2 8w7s and sealed box. Again, can I use a LOC (how many channel?), If so, why does JL sell a cleansweep for a whopping $200? Is it for HU w/Nav system? Thanks everyone |

If I'm reading the Eclipse HU correctly, there is an extra part that I can purchase for around $70 that will allow me to continue to use my steering wheel controls. Correct? Now what about my XM that is in my HU? |

I may have to wait a while to do that. This stuff is expensive. 2 subs, box, amp, wiring kit and remote knob and I'm in for $1300 (and that is with shopping around a lot). $400 more for the deck and a couple hundred for install of it all. $2k total. I didn't expect to be in this deep. In spite of all i have said, people still say it will sound just "ok". Hopefully it will be loud enough to cover my screaming! lol |
