1st time owner and memner
Morning all,
Just signed up with the forums. I hope to get a lot of information for my new baby. I purchased a 1989 Cadillac Deville Sedan, loaded with digital dash with a 107,500 miles on it. The body looks brand new, it was garaged winters.
Nice to meet you all - it's time to start poking around!

See ya!

Thank you! Let's see.. No pics yet, I will work on that. The thing looks brand new. It's Silver with all original options - everything works on it. The only thing on the interior is the arm rests on each front door have duct tape on them due to ripping from the door. Other than that.. Int is 90%. I will get some pics to post. Let see.... I also want to put XM in it or replace the deck with at least a CD/MP3. The factory radio sounds so loud and has good bass, I am temped to get a XM cassette kit for it instead. What do you think? Anyone else get one of those or rewire a monster sound system in these babies. I am a first time Caddy owner.the Sandman said:Hey webman - Welcome to the CadillacForums!

Re: 1st time owner and memner
You can really go crazy with a stereo in a caddy, Everything always revolves around money and brand preference. Give me some things you were thinking and ill let you know what i have experience in.

Re: 1st time owner and memner
About getting the tape for the xm i would not recommend that just b/c of audio quailty. With a better head unit and a good connection the xm will be great. Having a cd/mp3 head unit is great b/c you only need 10% of the cd's b/c of the capacity of a cd with mp3's. This is just somethings to get you thinking. I have put a lot of systems in friends cars and mine as well. I would never pay anyone to do it unless its custom.

Re: 1st time owner and memner
There are plenty of units out there that will give you a cd/mp3 and xm hookup for a great price. Do you have any brands or prices or questions let me know
Yes that is the "cheap" way out but the quality will be horrible. If you want to figure out the quality put a tape adaptor with a cd player in your stereo that will give you a clue on what it will sound like.webman_1_2000 said:Woah?! You guys are fast..

Re: 1st time owner and memner
For the headunit i would get the 7500MP premier for that price.
much better head unit and it has mp3s
the xm unit pioneer has is great b/c of how easy it is to use with there headunits. Are you thinking about getting speakers and an amp. How far you want to go.,
Those are GREAT products. Those prices are REALLY steep though i can save some cash with some hunting and get you the Premier model as well.webman_1_2000 said:OK thanks. The other config I was looking at is:

Re: 1st time owner and memner
Yes, thanks. I need to save up though. But I think I will go this route. I will probably replace the rear deck speakers with new 6x9's as well.
