[W126 Coupe] Sound system for 500 SEC

[usef nazzal]

 Hey All

I know its a late reply but better than never..
Am in the process of upgrading my sound system too.. I was thinking of
switching to a different head unit such as Kenwood and mounting speakers via
kickpanels etc.. but at the same time i do not want anything too flashy i
want it to blend in with the interior..and am trying to build a good quality
system with reasonable bass and crisp sounds

regarding the ipod upgrade... my 560 came with a phone dock so i though id
mount my iphone and internally have a charger and AUX connected to power
supply and HU.. instead of drilling through the original dock.. I replicated
it using fiberglass and body filler .. made it a bit wider and it is much
heavier but for a first try it is good enough for me.. i bought a fake=cheap
IPAD dock and did some cutting in order to get the result shown in the
pictures.. also got a iphone car charger and am gonna connect it from the
lighter supply behind the ashtray .. now i just need to do some more sanding
and then take it to an upholstry shop..

I have tested the charger works perfectly.. havent tried the AUX yet since i
havent bought the HU yet and havent decided on which speaker brand to go
for..

if you guys need more pix\info just reply.
