Replying to: masantafe (Nov 14, 2008 11:37 am) I would probably recommend against Circuit City since they just filed for bankruptcy, although that may not mean anything. Best Buy overall has a good reputation as far as big box stores go - their installers can be as good as anybody. Krank It Up in Medford seems to have a good reputation, though I have no personal experience with them (I'm in Colorado). Do yourself a favor - Google "car stereo" and "Boston" and see who looks like a good bet.

Replying to: masantafe (Nov 14, 2008 1:39 pm) I saw the same post, but am thinking the poster was referring to an older model SF or maybe another Hyundai model. I have a 2007 and have driven some 2008 models too. The doors only lock automatically, not unlock. The programming does not give you a choice.

Replying to: masantafe (Nov 14, 2008 1:39 pm) There is a TSB (06-90-022) on hmaservice.com for model years 2006 & 1007 that lists the options for the auto door locks on the Santa Fe as: 1. OFF 2. SPEED-LINKED - 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 Km/H It states there is no auto unlock feature for the SF. I do not see a TSB for the door locks for the 2008 model.
#2860 of 2961 Ipod plug in by chrislegg1 Nov 15, 2008 (2:50 am)
I have newly moved up into the Ipod world. Does anyone have any help on how to get it to work in a 2007 Santa Fe? It seems surprising to me that in this day and age, there is no auxilary plug in for it. Chris Replies to this message: gstern94 (Jan 06, 2009 9:43 am)

Replying to: denvertrakker (Nov 14, 2008 6:10 pm) I grew up in Medford and I know exactly where Krank It Up is located. Please tell me a more about them, if you can. Also, do you know anything about Pro Sound in Salem NH. That is very close to where I work and so it would be most convenient. I do know they have been at that location for many years. Thanks again.

Replying to: denvertrakker (Nov 14, 2008 6:10 pm) Denvertrakker - Do you have a shop/installer that you can recommend in the Denver area? That's where I live ... and I am planning to upgrade the speakers on my 2007 Santa Fe. Cheers! -Bokonon Replies to this message: denvertrakker (Nov 27, 2008 7:36 pm)

Replying to: bokonon3 (Nov 26, 2008 8:20 pm) Quality Auto Sound has a pretty good reputation, although the only one I have personal experience with is the one in Greeley. Excalibur Sound on W. Hampden near Federal has been around a long time and seems better than average. And there's always CarToys, which is likely to be the most expensive. The only really negative one (not personally, but from what I've heard) is Sound on Wheels.

Replying to: denvertrakker (Nov 14, 2008 9:24 am) I just got a quote for $1,000 up to $1400. It includes Boston and/or JL speakers with an amp (no Sub). I'm sure this is quality stuff, my question is, can I do this for less $ and still be making a decent upgrade? i guess i was trying to do this installed for around $600-$700.

Replying to: masantafe (Dec 02, 2008 10:13 am) I went ahead and had the speakers in my Santa Fe replaced this past weekend (at Car Toys, here in Denver). I chose Alpine SPS 600C component speaker sets in the front, and Infinity 6022i speakers for the back. The speakers and install ran me about $450 - which is not cheap, but I liked the store and the install people, and decided to give them my business. Their product recommendations were dead on, and they did an excellent job with the installation (which involved removing the door panels, as well as drilling new mounting holes and replacing the crossovers for the tweeters in the front doors - all of which was more involved than I wanted to get in my drafty, grimy garage during winter). The stock speakers were made out of cardboard. Not impressive at all. I didn't get an amp installed. I am running the new speakers off the stock head unit. For my purposes, I don't think the amp was necessary. The improvement in sound quality simply from replacing the speakers was very impressive, and is immediately noticeable. Cheers!
