Reus Stereo & Guages Installed!

Finally got my car back with Reus system and custom gauges, it was a long wait but well worth it. The sound is phenomenal as words can not describe it...everything is so much more "musical"! The bass is also amazing with 3 10" subs discreetly placed in the rear...it's as stock looking as they come. The Eclipse head unit is great and easy to operate. Sorry for the poor quality of the pic...will try to take better ones later.

Did Reus put in the gauges or someone else did?

What else did you get besides the woofers?

Reus custom made the bracket and put in the gauges for me, Tom at Lucent did the interface connection for the gauges.

I got the whole package from Reus: woofers, speakers, tweeters, 8-disc CD changer, and amps.

It's black matching the dashboard. Originally it was all in CF but I thought it's a bit too much so we decided to go with the other alternative.

Are those the guages that go black when they're powered off? Are the angeled towards the driver? Did a great install - I would probably gone with CF around the guages, but that's me.

Is that OAT on the guage on the bottom right?

Yes, the gauges go black when they're powered off. And yes they're angled toward the driver...it's part of the special design we came up this time. Actually originally we ahd it in CF all around the gauges but thought it's too much due to all the CF parts that are already inside the car. The bottom right is ext temp.

Just a personal opinion but.... the cf looks waaaaaaay better. It's just like Reus... they even matched the diagonal pattern on the CF to your existing trim.
