Albert V's 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt SS

Aug 07, 2026

Items installed:

Eclipse CD3100
10" Kenwood Tornado Series sub
Jensen 500 Watt Amp
2GB Ipod Nano

Installation Description

When I bought my car it had the factory Pioneer 7 speaker amplified system. I wanted more so I decided to upgrade the head unit with the Eclipse CD3100. I also chose the Metra wiring harness to keep the door chimes and all my speakers without splicing the factory wiring harness. I already had a Kenwood Tornado series sub and a Jensen amp laying around from my previous vehicle, so temporarily I installed them in my Cobalt until I get my Alpine Type S. Also, I haven't decided on an amp yet so hopefully I can decide from all the amps Crutchfield.com has.
