Post Please tell us about your Mangusta audio improvements
My Mangusta factory radio had been replaced by some crappy Ford CD player that skipped (I had the exact one in my 2001 Lincoln LS V-8).
So I removed it and replaced it with this http://tsikot.yehey.com/classifieds/sho ... TX5500.jpg

Door speakers were replaced with Alpine F1 Status z17t. The amp is currently a Memphis 4x50w (McIntosh MCC440 4x50 and 2x100 is being repaired).

Most important, I used TYMPHANY LAT500 http://www.d-s-t.com.au/LAT/LAT500-4.jpg for the subs. Beneath the rear seats, are some 6x9 speaker cutouts. I cut this wider and placed the Tymphany LAT500 into these holes.
Result? Incredible separation, clear voices and nice bass from a package that only displaces your feet 2" forward if you were small enough to fit in the back seat anyway. Amp mounted in trunk but can still still fit sunroof, etc.

Will post pictures soon. :mrgreen:

I had a Pioneer AVIC-X710BT Multimedia_Navigation system installed. The factory opening is a standard "double din" opening. The unit allowed me to change the start-up screen, so I set it up with the Mangusta logo. Everyone thinks its a factory installed system.

I just purchased Pioneer AVIC-X920BT and hope to get it installed within next couple of weeks. Looking for best installers in the Atlanta area if anyone knows of any.

Changing the startup screen to a Qvale or Mangusta logo will definitely give it a factory look if the install looks good.
