Rockford Fosgate 650 Watt stereo upgrade

So I got the premium package for my Evo which includes the Rockford fosgate speakers/amp, plus the DVD navigation system.

I notice that the base lancer has the ability to receive FM Text (song names, messages from the radio stations) but I don't see that feature on the DVD Nav Unit. Please don't tell me that I lost the ability to receive FM text by "upgrading" to the Nav Unit.

If you want good tips and answer about the Nav system check out www.mitsubishiforum.com in the outlander section they have a good section about the MMC they will be able to answer your question. Hope that help.

I have that songs/names/messages on my EVO (it's a fairly basic system in most cars in the last few years)... I didn't get the upgrade Nav/Fosgate as I bought the car off the lot. Interesting you don't have it...but even if you don't, the Nav unit you have is quite amazing...google it...you will see all the options it has...I just watched a U-tube video on it. I'm planning on buying an aftermarket Nav system with back-up camera...right now they go for about $1000...will like to see what's behind that wing when I'm backing up...lol.

well... Consider your self lucky lol, you have the MR wing (bigger wing).. I'll let you try my car if you want you'll love the nice octane blue color reflecting in my mirror hahaha

I love the Octane blue color you have...it would have been my first choice if I would have had a choice. I took the only EVO MR available and it was Phantom black...I had to pay the upgrade price...I couldn't believe that it's an upgrade for a "black" color....lol.

The thing is that my wing is lower then yours lol so I can't see a damn thing, I would love to get one like yours lolll

It's hardly just black though.

I believe there is gold colour flecks in the paint which is why they charge a bit more for it.

And my ebay backup camera works great with the Nav system

Hopefully there is some gold in the black paint...I know that there's less gold in my wallet.

I never thought about the lower wing and less visibility but it makes sense. The police may pick on you less though...I've been hearing that a lot of people are removing their wings for just this reason...they were getting stopped for idiotic reasons. Removing the big wing takes away from the look of the car, but if that means less police intervention then it might be worth it for some.

I've never been stopped for idiotic reasons

I have been stopped for speeding, but that's a pretty good reason to get stopped

But I have to remind you that speeding is not for the streets keep it for the track
