JP Fabrication Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Here is my long time friend's new Fiat 500 she recently purchased. She was happy with the factory headunit with the Bluetooth but the rest of the system needed to go. I did this install over a four month period when I had free time. Audison Bit Ten JLHD 900/5 Zapco RH-16.2 6.5" Reference-active ALPINE SWR-1042D The bass control knob was mounted to the left of the steering wheel.

JP Fabrication Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Quarter panels, roof, and trunk all received deadening. We also had the headliner and visors wrapped in black suede After I was done with the install I took it to The SoundMan in Santa Clarita were Doug and Rafa took care of an input issue and then tuned the Bit Ten.
