Im getting a 98' base 2x4 4runner and I want to put a sound system in. I want to use the stock head unit though. I also want to have enough trunk space left to actually put stuff there, but still big sound. I don't want a cheap system either. What should I do? pics and prices please too
What audio system?

Well...you're not asking for much are you? That stock deck needs changed. Period. Then discuss the reality of what your expectations are for sound.
ok thanks

Yeah, a stock deck will not do any improvement in sound so that will definately need to be changed. If you want the best sound, get a 4-Channel amp and hook up a set of components and 2 ways for your highs/mids and you'll be set.
Then you can get a sub/amp setup for your lows.
Prices:
headunit/deck : depends what you want... something basic can range from 50-100 but something higher end like a double DIN can range from 200-500 or even more if you want NAV and stuff.
4 Channel amp : 200-500 again depends on where you buy it and what brand.
components and 2 ways : 200-300
sub/amp: depends on how much power you're looking for.. 100-800 for the setup
all those prices don't include labor so expect to pay labor charges as well. If you want the best of sound, go with JL Audio subs and amps and a good brand head-unit such as Alpine, Pioneer, etc.

It would help us a lot if you told us what your budget is. Then we can be more specific in our recommendations. And you GOTTA replace the head unit. That is by far the biggest change you can make to improve your sound. So give us a price range and what you got in mind for HU (DD, touchscreen, extra hookups, etc.) and we can go from there.
