Well after months of searching I finally took the plung, so I guess you guys will have to put up with me on a regular basis now. I love it by the way, had the biggest smile across my face all the way home and went out to drive it for no reason twice already. Now I just need to clean it up to my standards since I bought it from a private individual it was not detailed. BTW the stock Bose sub isn't working, anyone know what is up I checked the connections to see if it was unhooked and everything checked out, is there a fuse for this or what. Thanks again for everything thus far, great site!!!!

 

Congratulations! Enjoy the car she is a beaut. Dont have an answer on your sub question.

 

I bought the same exact car for 12,500.00 it had 62k miles on it, however, it came fully loaded: leather, bose, heated seats, cd player, yadda yadda. . .

 

are the other speakers working?

 

Test the sub to see if it's working by applying a current on it's speaker terminals. Take a battery (any battery will do like the 12v battery from an electric drill) and connect the + to + on the speaker, and - to - on the speaker and just "pop" it for one second. You should hear the speaker make a "pop" sound. If it doesn't then the speaker is blown. If it does then the amp has blown it's sub channel. Then you have a great opportunity to upgrade the sub.

If that's the case the use a PAC Bose adaptor to get RCA's out the the deck, don't use a high-low converter because you loose a lot of S/N. Then just thow in you amp and sub. You should get away with the whole setup for under $350 if you can do the labor yourself.

Email for the PAC adaptor if you need one.

 

Mines fully loaded with leather, heated seats, sunroof, Bose, etc. only for some reason it has the 16" 5 spokes. 82k on it and I picked it up for $9k. Love it so far.

Yes all the other speakers work.

 

welcome...good choice. I too have a black 2k 5-sp with leather/heat/bose, etc etc but with 17's...
