Well after a couple months of shopping around and 44 hours worth of labor at my mechanic's place....the system is done and here are the specs:

Head Unit: Panasonic in-dash DVD system w/ 7-inch retracable monitor and true 5.1 DD sound(Link to Crutchfield )

Center Channel Speaker: Clairion SRK5 (Crutchfield)

Front door speakers: Alpine 6x9 Type R -- NEW!! 8March2004 (Link to Crutchfield)

Rear door speakers: Alpine 6x6.5 Type R -- NEW!! 8March2004 (Link to Crutchfield)

Sub: Alpine 12-inch Type R (Link to Crutchfield)

Door Speaker Amp: Alpine 360W 4-Ch Amp (Link to Crutchfield)

Subwoofer Amp: Alpine 300W Mono Amp (Link to Crutchfield)

CD Changer: Panasonic 8-Disc changer (Link to Crutchfield)

SWI-X Steering wheel control modulator (Link to Crutchfield)

Alpine RUX-4180 Subwoofer Controler (Link to Crutchfield)

I searched around on www.pricegrabber.com to get great prices on everything -- especially half off on the sub amp and 750 off on the DVD system. The installation was expensive, but they installed EVERYTHING in the factory channels as opposed to a CircuityCity job where they just take up some of the plastic molding. Basically they rewired the entire system as if it were a factory job. So...expensive but very professional and very functional. The system sounds amazing, especailly with the true 5.1 Dolby Digital sound. My next move is to install some Pyramid monitors behind the front headrests (I plan to wire it all myself for this part of the job) -- Bryancos has a great post about them HERE. Check out some of the pictures below and thanks for reading!!
