Installations

2001 Ford F350

Dubbed the "FIRE ENGINE", this trucks' system was designed by Scott Dunnet and installed by Jimmy Yeung. It has almost everything available for mobile electronics! It contains:
  • Alpine IVA-C800 AM/FM CD player/LCD monitor
  • Alpine NVE-N851A DVD GPS navigation system
  • Two (2) Alpine amplifers (1 MRV-F307 for main speakers, 1 MRV-100M for the subwoofers)
  • Two (2) pairs of Eclipse 8973 5x7" "point source" speakers
  • JL Audio 99SDJL10W3 custom fiberglass enclosure with 10" 10W3 subwoofer (mounted inside the center console!)
  • Globalstar GSP-1600 cellular/satellite phone
  • Globalstar GCK-1410M handsfree kit
  • Escort SR1 front/rear laser/radar detector
  • Alpine SEC-8063 security system
  • Alpine SEC-8463 proximity sensor

Since this installation which was done in May 2001, all this equipment has been moved to a newer 2002 Chevrolet Silverado with an 8.1 liter engine. The Ford proved not to be powerful enough. The speakers in the Silverado were also upgraded to Boston Acoustics ProSeries, a remote engine starter was added to the Alpine SEC-8063 security systm, a back-up sensor was added to detect objects when in reverse, a module was interfaced to maintain the vehicles' On-Star feature, and finally, a Uniden PRO-520XL CB radio was added. I do not believe there is another vehicle on the road today in Vancouver with more mobile electronics equipment than this one!
