Default putting a system in the F

I will like to know have any of the F owners thinking about putting a system in the F? I got the ML package but will like to know if the ML system have a video output for some headrest?

I have a RX 330 and i put a 15 inch sub in it.. but i think it would be pretty stupid to buy a fast car, and fill it up with 150 pounds of audio stuff... it would make the car much slower.. not to mention with 4 riders it wouldnt be able to carry the weight

on the headrests

If you wanted an IS with headrests and subs you should've gotten a IS230/350. Why do you want to listen to cd's when you have that sweet sweet music from that 5.0 V8!

I've made a few additions to the ML in my 08 ISF, as for the added weight how really cares... the car is plenty fast...

I first added the iPod adapter from USASpec... works great and controllable from the wheel.

I then install an MTX terminator Amp 400 watts and a MTX 12" 5500 sub w/ported enclosure. Wasn’t impressed.

I upgraded the amp to a MTX Jackhammer Amp 1300 watts and a MTX 12" 7500 sub... Better if you like Rap music but did have good broad sound range.

I then added the MTX re-Q module to reconstruct the bass output from the ML head unit since it had listening protection and the sub output was tuned below 60Hz

Much Better... Well Worth the 1k cost of you want your sound as rich as this car is fast.

Cheers
