My bank balance is finally allowing me to buy an empeg :-)
I've got an Alfa Romeo 145, has anyone got any installation tips etc for it ?
I'd also like to hear anyones views on the factory speakers, as they sound ok(ish) to me (a complete beginner to car audio) using the current (non amp) head unit.

Thanks

As long as you read the FAQ you should be pretty right. I don't know the car myself but if it is a tricky install, you're best off consulting a specialist for help.

Also remember that there's a new, upated FAQ at riocar.org which is almost done. The installation section is very similar, though.
