I appologize for brining up an old thread, but I seemed to have missed it when Kazama said he was actually going to buy the Odyssey. So to start...CONGRATS! It's a blast. I love it. I'll tell you what I did and maybe it will help.

First of all, I have a thread in the install forum with pictures. Did you get the NAV? Just wondering. My installer reccomended under the driver's seat. It works well there.

I have a suggestion on the speakers. Frankly, I think everyone here has been correct so far, but I think it varies from car to car. Here is my summary of the Odyssey's factory system:

Speakers: Good
Head unit: Satan

I swear that once you put the empeg and an amp in there, the speakers will be fine. However, I didn't upgrade because I didn't see the need in spending the money on speakers. You already have them, so I say use them. It can't hurt.

Anyway, I hope you're enjoying your new ride. I still enjoy it after over a year of driving it. Look forward to two things when it comes to friends and your automatic doors:

1) a look of amazement
2) the phrase: "you don't have to push/pull it."
