Bought a new toy :)

[ramairgt2]

Well not a toy really, I bought a brand new Alpine 9857. I absolutly love this new deck. It lights up blue and has some pretty nice features and more capabilities than my Alpine 7894. I gave my 7894 to my girlfriend. I will post some pics of my stereo tomorrow possibly. Looks pretty nice in my dash lol. So what do you guys think of Alpine?

ok I couldn't wait til tomorrow. Here some pics of my new stereo in the ga. I installed it this morning at about 2 a.m. and didn't like how it turned out so I redid it after I got home from work. I think its a very clean install. I also threw a pic in of my 7894 which is all set to be installed in my gfs 02 sunfire tomorrow. Enjoy! http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_7_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_8_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_9_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_10_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_11_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2360000-2360999/2360497_12_full.jpg
