variables from fabrics and seat placement to instrument panel materials and
occupant positions.  Visteon worked closely with Boston Acoustics to ensure its
true, rich signature sound.  The result is a polished, dimensional in- vehicle
sound stage to please even the most discriminating audiophile.

"Visteon congratulates the Chrysler Group on winning this esteemed honor," said
Julie Fream, Visteon's vice president and general manager, DaimlerChrysler

The result of the Visteon/Boston Acoustics partnership is a custom- designed,
engineered and equalized Boston Acoustics-branded audio system. Today, the
