Frugal ICE - total Rs. 8500 including install

[Sam Kapasi]

You must have fit 4" coaxials in the front, in the stock position on the dashboard. 4.5" is not an industry standard size.

Hey Carboy!
You da Boss! You were brave enough to foray into the ICE world with lots a bucks, still managed to hold your hand and bought a basic system. You're happy with it. And had enough courage to post it up here!
Having a basic system in your car is nothing to be ashamed of. Many of our cars also have very basic and some fake systems. Sam knows of our Santro which has fake TS20s!

Enjoy and be Happy with your system. Don't start thinking of your's is not good as mine or vice versa thingys. You'll have a lot of audio filled enjoyable kilometers ahead.

Yes, I can't resist too. Pics? If any?

Think of it, people getting egoistic about proving the lack of ego! Cheaper the cost of ICE, more proud the owner becomes in show-off section... I would probably top the list with nokia FM tuner as my only ICE

Lol... once i and my friend went to Kollur in his Maruti Omni and our ICE was my Nokia Ngage QD at full volume

Hi Sam and all, Got Blaupunkt front 5.25 inches (not sure if it is 5.25 or 5.5) fixed on the doors. I was thinking of installing the 4 inchers on the dash as it is easier. But yesterday i got power windows fitted, and since the doors had to be opened up anyway thought of putting the 5.25 ones. Quality is clear and crisp and surprisingly a little bit of bass too.
