Default Anyone interested in this setup?

Sorry if this isn't the place for it. I won't be posting up a price and this is not a for sale thing for now. I am interested in selling my car and would not have use for the stereo if I did. Also, me selling the car is variant upon whether or not I can get rid of my stereo equipment at a decent price. I'm not selling this now, but I wanted to see if anyone might be interested in a setup like mine. I'll list details below and pics. Please PM me back or if you want, post some feedback on the system and let me know if you like what I've done.

-Alpine D900 head unit
-Alpine H700 processor
-Alpine I Pod integration unit
-Alpine expansion module for head unit
-PAC Steering Wheel control module with remote eye mounted in dome light housing.
-Dynaudio 7" woofers in doors
-Dynaudio 1.1" tweeters mounted above kick panels
-Dynaudio 4" enclosed dome midrange mounted in front defroster area under dash for Center Channel
-Diamond Audio 6.5" HEX woofers in "middle/rear" speaker spots
-No speakers in rear hatch
-Custom fiberglass box w/2 10" JL Audio 10w3v2 d4 subwoofers in seperate airspaces
-JL Audio 500/1 powering subs
-JL Audio 300/4 bridged powering front woofers
-JL Audio 300/4 powering tweeters and rear speakers
-JL Audio e2150 bridged powering center channel speaker

The e2150 is mounted on the wall behind the spare tire. A 2 Farad Stinger Cap is mounted there too. The other 3 amps are on a custom welded amp rack that is seated in between the 2 subs on the rear hatch area. I Then have the "Brains" for the processor, head unit, alpine ipod stuff, and cd changer mounted in the left rear section next to the T-top area. The sub enclosure and cosmetic panel with housing the changer is wrapped in black matching vinyl. The Head unit and processor are mounted in the dash where the dash trim piece was made to fit 2 full "dins".

Thank you. I spent tons of time and money doing it. If you go through what it would cost retail for parts and the the labor for custom work on the box, amp rack, mounting, etc. I would expect it to have been over 10 grand at least.

All that stuff looks to be very impressive, but you are going to take a huge hit on it. If you are interested in dumping the whole setup for about half of market value (what it would cost to build up new now - not the prices you paid when it was new) that is about where you should start.

JL amplifiers hold their value really well. That is about the only thing that would possibly sell for more.

Given the extent of the setup, you might want to consider a private ad for the entire vehicle, or perhaps a reserved auction on ebay.

Seeing the stereo setup and the mods to the car, what would you think I could ask for the whole deal? Car is an 02 ss a4 t-top with 54k mi.

Shop around on autotrader.com for the same car in your area, then add for the stereo.

02 ss is proabably in the mid to high teens with that mileage.

find how much you can get the parts for used, then add them up and add that to your car.

Mods arn't going to raise the value of your car by much.

you won't get 7k for the stereo. Electronics are cheap.

Same for mods, there's not much for the mods on a vehicle. You can sell it mostly for the same amount without the mods. Sometimes it's best to sell them seperate. Same as the stereo.
