Damn, if the thing "grenaded" good job it didn't send shrapnel into anything vital (I'm thinking any nearby electrical wiring etc.)
Heh, you must not have been putting the system under much of a strain then (No tunes, no A/C or fan and just DRL's) did you hear the thing go blooie or was it just "WTF is the battery light on for?" type of deal?
