Roughly how much do the Alpine 9886's go for?

And this is possibly a stupid question but where is the USB port? Doesnt look as though it's on the front, but would be a PITA on the back would'nt it??

thats why you run a cord into the glove box mike or into the center console for easy of access or in your case the pocket underneath the unit ! PM for pricing mate.

Cheers Phil

Nah no GPS, but I think Alpine plans to release a add on module later. Pioneer do a similar one with GPS for about 4k.

Alpine GPS plug and play in December/ January RRP of around $600 will plug into any AV input plus work with Alpine "touch" screen only but any AV unit with Yellow Plug.....if that makes sense...

I've got some (used) Alpine Type R 6.5" splits and 6x9's if you're interested. In perfect working order and unmarked. Currently sitting in a box in my shed doing SFA. All yours for $250 if ya want.....

Philbo · #19 22-10-2008, 03:29 PM

^^^ Thats a pretty good price Phil, how old are the splits ? and were the 6x9's amped at all ?

TheSaint PM for pricing for a 9886i

Cheers Phil

Ummm how old? Not sure exactly, 2007 model I think. Splits and 6x9's all ran off a 60Wx4ch amp installed by Alberts in Midland. Pic of 6x9's below, splits the same style cover
