Those that are into aesthetics rarely are, they're just into glueing on the latest bit of plastic tat that magazines and the "modding scene" tell them to.

Competition level ICE obviously has a purpose, but most installs are just noise and bad noise at that.
I spend a couple of hours driving every day and I'm lucky that the radio is good enough for my listening tastes, so I can quite happily make do with the standard tape headunit.
Should I ever go for an amp and sub, I'll definately have a CD packed full of the cheesiest shite to raise the hem lines of every piece of skirt about might even have a late lunch break to go and sit outside school


is it only me that does this then?


Until I get meself some rinsin choons, yes.


i recommend baby cakes though...the local skirts love abit of that


So if I get a CD full of Babycakes remixes, maybe one of Streets' Dry Your Eyes (for some backseat action) and maybe trade my Sony Ericsson in for a Nokia... with all the young sluts be lovin it?

i turn my music down when im in an area with lots of traffic/people. people with their windows down & choons up full trying to get attention seems pathetic to me

I'm not into big sound systems, hence why I went for something different in the boot...

i always thought i'd have a loud radio when i got a car... but to be honest i hate the radio up loud when i'm driving... i much rather prefer to listen to my engine and make sure its all ok with no strange noises......

having said that i took off one of the dorr pockets the other day and one of the speakers has got infected with some sort of speaker eating disease cos half of it was missing... so i think some sort of a new system is needed..

tape deck keeps eating my tapes too

I used to have a fairly good system in mine, was loud if I turned it up...

but in all honesty, I never really took it above half, as long as it sounded good that was allright by me.
