Guys. Getting my ride cx7 mazda recond soon. So first thing i want to do is setup the ice. Details as below. Can u recommend a reputable shop to help me out?


- [b]My ride: mazda cx7 2009
- [b]Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: SQ. car for long distance drive so must be syiok to listen to music
- [b]File format/medium used for my source: mp3, CD, dvd, gps, and ipod
- [B]Music genre: All sorts primarily Rap but not so bass heavy
- [B]Budget: 4k
- [b]Setup type preferences: Current Head unit is the touchscreen and would like to replace the same with touchscreen unit and to control back the left n reverse camera. Able to do bluetooth for phone as well.
- [b]Other requirements (if any): to increase speakers in the car as if not mistaken theres only 4 speakers in the car versus bermaz cx7 equipped with 9 bose speakers. Need to put tweeters front and rear seats however not looking for the boom box as looking at reserving boot space.

Hope you can advice me which shop can do mazda as i dgr the electronics is very manja hence may coz malfunction to other functions if not careful.

Pls pm me if need be. Thanks

consider keeping the HU if it is able to meet your requirements in HU, then use the money for an audio processor, amp, and component set speakers.

highly recommended to still get a passive subwoofer, and there are many ways to install a subwoofer that can still allow you to retain boot space

for shops, consider looking for howiechoo at EA autoworks, carcrazy at hifi creations, non LYN shops would be kf audio or cv audio

Hi quaza.

Thanks for the reply. For the hu, im looking to change since its in jap language n furthermore the gps is not working n radio must have booster for local stations. Unless i forgo the gps n use external (a bit mafan) but still have to settle with the jap language n put n third party booster.

Or theres a way other then tis?

if radio is a must, then perhaps look for cheaper booster.

good 2din HU with gps from reputable brands cost between 2-3k or even more.
that would pretty much use up most of your budget unless you can stretch it

Hi quaz

Thanks bro for replying. Yeap a good 2din ard 3k circa. Then 2k prolly will soend on speakers. Hope its fine. Maybe stretched to 5500 max. Any brand u recommend? Will need to do research first. Am looking at all in hu ie gps, dvd, cd, mp3 hard drive, touchscreen.

Thanks
