Subject: Escalade stereo upgrade

## Jeffery,

I would install a separate system in Escalade, leaving the factory front door speakers to operate the dash board Navigation, XM and Radio functions.

Then install new upgraded coaxial speakers in rear doors and install a hidden subwoofer in the storage compartment located in the rear of suburban with the radio installed in ceiling, in place of the rear fold down DVD system, so you can operate and see the control head, the Alpine I selected is easy to operate and has a remote,.lpod, and XM radio.

## Alpine CDA-9886 radio $262.46

Alpine Bluetooth adaptor $134.96
Morel integra ovation 6.5 coal speakers $479.96
Alpine 600 watt amp $615.96

Metra overhead install kit for ceiling $22.46
