Upgrade stereo in 3170ds

Looking to upgrade both the cockpit house stereo in my 3170ds. I want to upgrade speakers in driving area, add speakers in the camper inside and out. I want access to satellite radio in all areas. Considering surround sound for main tv also. Anyone done this? Ideas for equipment, running wires, etc?

I still have my original Jensen dash and house radio's. After making these upgrades (http://www.forestriverforums.com/for...on-186043.html) there is no need to change those out now unless they fail. Also, we never use the NAV in the Jensen dash radio.

You might consider a Bluetooth setup. They're relatively easy to setup and you won't have to mess with wires.
