So I picked up a shiny new 2003 Silver CR-V this week. 
Am I excited? Yes I am. Here’s some pics for the curious.
Overall I love the car – lots of room, handles well, and it gets very good gas milage for an SUV (an admittedly small SUV). I wouldn’t mind if the tires were a tiny bit bigger, but I can always change that later if I feel like blowing some money on something will little to no practical purpose.
The one thing I do want to work on though is the stereo system. The sound is passable, but it sounds kind of weak and muted compared to the “premium” system I had in my old car.
So what’s the easiest way to pump it up without affecting the appearance of the vehicle? Would an amp and new speakers (replacing the old ones) help? Would I need a whole new head unit? I’d like to avoid that if possible unless they’re making aftermarket stereos that look a lot less hideous than the ones I usually see in Best Buy. Do I need to stash a subwoofer somewhere? Help me, I know nothing!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
