Okay, so maybe not following the standard PH philosophy, but I'd like to see and read about your In Car Entertainment systems - I've pretty much upgraded the system in every car I've owned, nothing very spectacular, but if your gonna spend a lot of time in a car and you love music it's worth having a decent system to enjoy you choons!
I want some inspiration as I've got a pile of kit waiting to get installed but just not getting round to it!

One of these with a Becker Ipod lead in the glovebox
Bluetooth for the phone aswell, sounds great, looks stock and you control the Ipod from the HU
Infinity speakers at present. I'd like a good set of components for the front and an amp to run it all, but that's for a later date. To be honest it sounds bloody good as it is!

OK I'll do it properly.
One of these in the Saab:
(complete with 2 Alpine components at the front and some others in the shelf)
One of these in MX-5:
(complete with whatever door speakers are there!)
Can't be bothered with any amps or stuff, both cars are acoustically crap!
Both nice HUs though, decent sound quality. Kenwood has more bells and whistles and very configurable, however, not easy to use on the move due a funny menu/iDrive type interface. Both around the £150 mark, bluetooth, iPod/USB compatibility and good sound quality.

Never took the time out to show mine but here it is
The sub and amp both cost me £10
Head unit was £49
Door speakers £25
Not bad for a sub £100 system really enough to make the mirrors shake (not that happens often)
It's amazing what a great sounds you can get for not a lot of money. I did spend over £1k on a system for a company car once! The sub and amp both cost me £10
Head unit was £49
Door speakers £25

Snap!One of these in the Saab:
Used to have one of those Sony black panel units where there was nothing but a screen and a couple of blue LED buttons. The controls were on the reverse of the fascia. Looked great when closed but the control interface looked so chavvy.
Had all this in my last car........ but, it's not really my thing anymore and it's all up in the garage roof now 
Should get it all advertised really as the older it gets the less it'll be worth 
Current car has gone the last two years without even a radio I'm too busy listening for bits dropping off
