Yeah, that is the way I am. I would get the basic system, and replace it. I just did my mustang. I am sure nothing compared to your systems habeba, but works for me. I will post pics later.
Right now I have the stock HU.
Infinity Basslink II 250Wrms amped sub w/ the 4sc module installed that is 4 channel 50Wrms
4 Infinity Kappa682.7CF 6x8's.
Harman Kardan IPOD Drive and Play.
PIE aux rca input for HK Drive and Play.
I used the Pep Boys Lightning cable kit to hook the amp up and speaker wire
All cost me around $400.
It sounds pretty good for me. I still am in the process of getting the gains just right, and crossover just right on the sub.
I am going to see how this all works once adjusted and make the decision of a cleansweep, or something similar to it.

TechmanBD.....when you say cleansweep are you talking about sweeping your car with pink noise and calibrating
the different frequencies with a 1/3 octave equalizer or did I read more into it and got geeky.
I had done that in my last Dodge Caravan and the sound was clean, and had a deep tight bass. The highs were highs and the lows were lows.

I don't care what comes in the car as long as I can put in my DVD-A player.
That way I can listen to my 1 off "Dark Side of the Moon" 4.1 surround sound DVD-A disc. 96/24 High Rez.
Not The SACD/MC. Version.[&o]
But the Original Alan Parsons 4.0 QUAD Remasterted for DVD-A Audio.
Not available to the general public I may add![sm=sorry.gif]
Then blow off their doors.[sm=massbounce.gif]

No, the cleansweep is made by JL, it is a signal processor to add to the output of the OEM stereos, in flatens the EQ and the adjusts the EQ to the way you want it. Then has rca low outputs you put to the amps. It is suppose to make the ability to keep the stock stereo and have a clean sound of an aftermarket HU.

Also know that flattening an EQ is not a good thing due to differences in electronics, speaker, room acoustics (including road noise), and oh by the way our ears. Look at Fletcher–Munson curves and you will know what I am talking about. Those curves basically show that at different frequencies our ears have different loudness contours.
What I am saying is if you want the look get a Cleansweep, but if you want the sound get a new head unit with low outputs or better yet digital outs either coax or optical. More and more auto radios have optical outs.

RE: Audio? How about radio delete?
Once I can, I have decided not to go the cleansweep route. I am going to get a better HU. Kenwood with HD tuner and the Kenwood Ipod controller. And put the HK Ipod controller back into the truck. But I want to see what the true stereo system will look like in teh Challenger, so what ever HU I buy, I can pull it out and put teh stock back in teh Mustang, and be able to use it on the Challenger.
The system I have in now sounds good, but definatley need a better HU.
