Indeed. Reminds of when I used to sell cars and one of the other younger salesman my age would listen to Playboy radio forum in the new vehicles with Sirius/XM and leave it. It rocked showing a family a van and when they start it up, there's moaning.

In hindsight it's funny though.

after doing some looking this morning I found the items I will be installing.

front speakers
Infinity Reference 5030cs

rear
Infinity Reference 6032si


hatch bass
Infinity Basslink II 250-Watt, Dual 10"

while I was at crutchfield I found this review which made me feel better


"5 out of 5
My whatever went to wow!
Written by Hogie, O'Fallon , MO., on Thursday, September 16, 2010

I called crutchfield to see what would fit in my 2011 fiesta as i didn't want to sacrifice what precious room I had back there . He suggested a Basslink system. So I bought it on sale and free delivery. I took the Kit with the free wireing ( not large enough #10 should have been #8 power wire ) to a local shop where it was professionally installed. The Installer looked at me like are you nuts? So, he installed the Basslink. When he went to get me in the store he said it was perfect for the car . I told Sync to play led zeps " How many more times " to get my bearings on the Bass..... (IM OLD) WOW! this is More than I thought it would be . I was expecting a 6 on the 1-10 scale but I would have to give it a 10. Then cranked up Dream theater and wow I am a happy Camper! The crutchfield guys really know their stuff!"

Did you order the speakers yet? Any pics of the Basslink installed? It's not bad for what it is, especially for the price.

The speakers should be here in the next few days(23rd, 28th).

The exhaust is also coming in a week.

The oil catch can will be here soon.

Doesn't matter what it looks like, as long as it sounds good.
