Limited Budget Upgrade for WRX Wagon
Ive Just purchased a 2003 Blobeye WRX Wagon... the standard headunit/speakers can only be described as dreadful!
They seem muffled and make a unfortunate farting noise at even moderate sound levels.
Even though Im not big into my ICE, I really enjoy listening to music in my cars and expect it to be clear and be able to perform loud enough for my cloth ears to hear.
I basically looking for upgrade items that will give me a "decent" system for as little as possible!
So far after having a browse through the forums I think I could get away with:
1) New front component speaker with standard rears
2) New double din head unit, as standard is regarded as junk ?
3) Sak 2820 Speaker fitting kit
Im hoping someone can advise on some budget components that would not be to deep and be easy fittment.
Reccomend a decent head unit to drive the components, I was thinking of the Pioneer FH-P808BT ? Or as single din better value ?
Also is Dynomat really necessary, considering I just want a budget setup, as it looks a chore to fit but it seems popular around here!

all sound dead material makes a difference there are better avaliable if you go to talkaudio forum some one on there sells the best stuff avaliable and cheaper than the best known brands, again speakers try infinity but go and listen to them first. budget speakers with a good sound.

talk audio is great worth asking questions you have world class installers on there manufactures etc.
people who tell you if kit is good or crap without the sales bull
