Title: Number 1 thing you'd change on your car? Post by: Jim Ratto on December 12, 2007, 17:46:47 pm For me it would be adding tunes to the car. I miss having good music in my car. Regret taking out my 6 x 9's and door speakers years ago.
Next bit of extra cash = stereo, amp, speakers.... what about you guys? Title: Re: Number 1 thing you'd change on your car? Post by: yvre on December 12, 2007, 17:55:01 pm Duh!!!
