Amplifier Rack
Four Alpine Amplifiers were located on the floor of the Buick, along with
a fifth amplifier on the back wall of the trunk.

EQ, Crossover, Noisegate and the Fifth Amplifier
Two 30 band, 1/3 octave mono equalizers were located on the left side of the
car. Next to them was an electronic crossover, and a noisegate was also
installed to prevent any noise from appearing on 0-bit test material.

Totally Stealth
With covers in place, the trunk maintained a very stock appearance. The
spare tire was retained, and there was very usable space. On the right
hand side, a second battery is located behind the spare tire.

Subs and Midwoofers
The Buick utilized a 6 speaker setup, with two 15" subwoofers in an AP
enclosure handling bass frequencies, two 12" midwoofers in the rear quarter
panels handling midbass frequencies and two WaveGuides handling all upper
frequencies.

|
|
Passenger Side Dash
The very first WaveGuides were used in the Buick. Both WaveGuides were
integrated into the dash in such a way that it was hard to tell they weren't
factory.

|
Steering Wheel Controls
Controls were integrated into the steering wheel for volume and track
control of the Alpine 7909 CD player.
