Default Audio equipment in my C4...

Im looking to change out my audio equipment in the Vette and im not sure what i need to do to swap it all out. I already have an Alpine IVA D310 screen for it. The carhas all the factory Bose stuff but i want to run Alpine Type S speakers all around and 2 10" Alpine type S 10's in a box with my Alpine IVA D310 screen as my headunit. I dont think clearance on the flip out will be an issue. Ill just need to get the harness and dash kit for it. Anything else i should know before i tackle this one?

Default RE: Audio equipment in my C4...

You might want to make sure the flip out screen wont hit your shifter. My 94 had the Bose system and there was no adapter for the harness. There are 2 parts to the stereo, the one in the dash and the tuner behind the passenger seat. I just took all the Bose stuff out and ran all new wires/cables. If your Bose is like mine you will need a new antenna cable also. Get one long enough from your head unit to the rear of the car where you can plug it into the cable coming out of the antenna. Mine had no antenna cable to the head unit, it went to the part behind the seat. I had to make my dash kit myself. I went with a Alpine1 DIN and a EQ 1/2 DIN. I had to build customs speaker boxes for the front kick panels to hold my 5 1/4 JL Audio speakers. I rewired the Bose speakers in the rear and kept them. They do sound pretty good for rear fill. A lot of people say you dont need rear fill but it make a world of difference. I have 2 12" Infinity Perfectsin the rear. I have one 4 channel amp for the 2 front and 2 rear and one 2 channel for the subs. My install was a total pain.

Good Luck
