Black Friday sales. Who’s buying what.
Update time! I already got in my new 22" radiator and full engine gasket set for the wagon. I decided to skip the SM heads for now, but I'm splurging for new tunes in the wagon. Right now I have an excellent AM only factory radio that works flawlessly, the single dash speaker is fine, and it actually sounds quite good - for AM. I have no issue with AM having grown up on it, but the content any more is pretty poor. So, I'm biting the bullet for a new AM/FM bluetooth high power head unit that looks EXACTLY like the factory radio (which is an oddball). I'll add a set of 4" speakers out of sight in the dash, and a set of 6x9's in some ported enclosures for the rear. It should be a real game-changer. If I need to add a subwoofer later I will, but I'm going to give this a try first with what's coming in. This car is all factory everything so I really like the idea of it retaining its factory appearance no matter what I'm upgrading. I'm not sure if I'll be OK with the 6x9's in boxes sitting in the back of the cargo area, but we'll see how that goes. I do have a Plan B if needed.
Edit: The radiator and gaskets came from Summit. The radiator was already marked down 10% and they honored their 10% coupon on top of that. The speakers came from Crutchfield, they are Focals at 50% off. The radio is from Custom Auto Sound, 15% off. In all, I saved over $400.
