Aftermarket Radios/Sat Installs and Mods

I just got my smart car and was looking for some insight on what systems are out there. "There is no reason to re-invent the wheel if it works for you"
Please include things like:
Who installed it and are you happy with it...
Your pics and any future mods you will be doing...
If you did it again would there be anything you would change...
Brands,Sizes of speakers, Best Prices, etc...

Thanks for responding! Keep the Faith!

Search the threads for this info. Plenty of threads already. Depends on how much you want to spend. You can see my website to see what I did. Still need to add a sub-woofer but overall I am really happy.

Going to add Kenwood Powered Subwoofer for behind drivers seat.

Is there any audio installers out there in South FLA. that have already installed some audio systems in a smart car? I do not want to be the guinea pig for a first time installer. It seems like California is so far ahead in audio installs...

audio that works

go see audio logic on Hollywood Blvd and 441 in Hollywood Fl. see Charlie or Mike and tell them Postman sent you. They do the best work in the county IMHO. They also have a great warranty and fantastic variety and carry JL Audio that makes the smart stealth box.they have been on the forfront of new technology for nav and remote starts and indash vid.

Here are some links...

My post DIY Stereo Installation Insights has links to other posts that I found invaluable.

Before doing it myself, I checked with a couple of reputable local installers. $500 was the lowest labor quote I got. You can do it yourself if your are methodical and patient. I did everything except speakers one day, then did the speakers on another day. I'm waiting for cooler weather to tackle the amp and subwoofer.
