November has been a busy month starting with the SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Once again it was a pleasure to be with our Kicker Audio clients as well as being reacquainted with friends at Ford Motor Company, JBA Performance Scott Drake Automotive and the members of the enthusiast press. Kicker's Global Marketing Director, Kevin Campbell is a very special person who also does a super job of heading up Kicker's marketing efforts. Since the company's OEM programs with Chrysler Corporation and Shelby Automobiles provide Kicker with the opportunity to reach and impact the high performance aftermarket we schedule a series of meetings with editors and publishers from the major enthusiast publications. It was fun watching Kevin and his people interact with the media.

With the new Kicker Shelby audio system for 2005-2010 Mustangs, available through Shelby Performance Parts dealers and on the web at shelbyperformanceparts.com. The new system greatly improves the Mustang or Shelby's sound system's sound quality and does not take up any room in the trunk. The Kicker/ Chrysler systems or available through Mopar Performance Parts and can be ordered on any SRT/8 vehicle. Kicker had two displays one for the OEM side of the business showcasing a Shelby GT equipped with the Kicker/Shelby system. The second display featured the complete lineup of the Kicker Audio lineup, including their new iK501 iPod docking station. These new docking stations provide quality sound and can definitely "rock the house!"
