Yes. Even a poster of the movie XXX will do.

Those Xplod fans will run to the store like there is no tomorrow.

OT: Did anyone watch the episode of 'pimp my ride' where they installed about 4-5 Xplod subs and a few Xplod amplifiers? I was like *puke*!

For VFM cables try the Ground Zero GZPK10 8 gauge amp wiring kit. A very neat kit for the price. Comes with one RCA:

Sam got it. "Bharat car accessories". Sam which compos should i be looking at 5-6.5k from JBL? Also do JBL wiring kits include rca cables?
@ramie: mrp is 6160 for the bostons.

Sam Kapasi · 24th October 2007, 18:41

There are no JBL wiring kits anymore. You will get GTO components for that budget.

ramie2400 · 24th October 2007, 18:51

thanks rohan for the info for the components

rohan_fonseca · 24th October 2007, 23:46

Ended up getting the 6950 instead of the 7950. The only difference being the motorized flap.
