If you can post your quote from the dealer for the L7 or Individual Audio system conversion it would interesting to see what parts and labor is included in the conversion.

Converting all the way over to Logic 7 is going to cost so much money I just do not see it being worth it. The L7 subs are listed at $670 each on real oem, not to mention each of the 4 tweeters and 7 midranges costs $100-200 each as well. Your going to need to run speaker wires into the rear doors, dash, and fiber optic cables to the L7 amp. And of course you have to change some hardware in order to use the L7 software as well. I just do not see a dealer or DIY getting it done. It is just way too cost prohibitive. But if your going to do it anyway, why not go all the way up to the "Individual audio system" sometimes called the M-audio system with extended bass instead of just the L7?


What you could do for much less money is to spend the $800 on the Audison bit one processor, and use it with the high level inputs. You can use the processor to create a center channel signal, as well as control your whole system. I would recommend buying 2 four channel amps with about 100 watts x 4 each to make the best use of your 8 channel processor. You could use earthquake subs for the up front bass, BSW speakers for midrange and treble if you like. You could have a 10" or 12" in the trunk if needed. Of course custom front speaker installation of brand "X" speakers is an option.

And when you get it all done, if your still not happy, you could then go out and buy the ( if available by then ) Mobridge PA1000 to get optical input from your car to the Audison bit one. ( this would require the L7 programming like Bruce said of course ).
I just realized your rear door panels do not have the grills for the speakers. That is an issue as well.
