Developed in cooperation with Stillwater Designs, Mopar Performance Parts announced the availability of exclusive OEM-engineered Kicker audio system upgrade kits for Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles. Mopar is the Chrysler Group's original equipment parts manufacturer.
The Mopar/Kicker audio system upgrade kits - the highest-output system from an OEM - deliver enhanced clarity and add power, weight, realism, detail, depth and impact to the sound. The kits pack from 400 to 768 watts of pavement-pounding bass. Component enclosures provide cosmetic integration with the existing factory-installed base or premium vehicle audio system.
"This is cutting-edge OEM design innovation for a high-performance vehicle audio system," said Chris Cortez, Senior Vice President - Global Service & Parts, Chrysler Group. "The upgrade kits allow our customers who crave great sound precision to customize their systems for when they hit the road. Our factory-engineered parts and accessories are designed to provide compatibility in function and fit."
Each of the exclusive, three-stage upgrade packages is designed for plug-and-play installation. The kits also minimize sound distortion.
Stage One
The stage one upgrade kit includes an amplified subwoofer allowing the driver and passengers to "feel the bass."
Stage Two
The stage two upgrade kit includes an amplified subwoofer and speaker replacement system featuring titanium tweeters that extend the system's frequency range. Special mid-range cone materials provide clarity to vocals for a more accurate sound quality.
Stage Three
The stage three upgrade kit includes an amplified subwoofer, speaker replacement system and amplifier. The 32-bit digital signal processing amplifier adds power, equalization and surround sound for concert hall-like performance quality through eight-channels of amplified sound. Once installed, the system interface allows the amp settings to be identified and automatically adjusted for the vehicle. The tailored-to-fit DSP equalization enhances sound quality.
The Kicker stage audio upgrade kits from Mopar are available for purchase and installation at Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealerships across the country. Mopar/Kicker audio upgrades are covered under Mopar's 12-month/12,000-mile Limited Warranty. This warranty is serviced by Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealerships.
Upgrade kit pricing varies depending on vehicle year, make, model and factory-installed system in vehicle (base or premium).
