anyone???

 

Take out your radio, disconnect it, move it down to the bottom, push wires down, connect radio.

If you have to cut a hole then dremel is your best friend.

 

If you are going to do all that why dont you just get the Audio Console it will give you two more bins of space. I use to have my Radio and a graphic Eq down there.

I did it in my '97. It is really easy. There are even places to screw the radio brackets into on the space behind the cupholders.

More practical if you want to put some gauges where the radio was .

Well, am I wrong?

I think a turbo timer or boost gauge or a/f meter or something of that nature is more practical there. Not that you would know j/k.

But in all reality, it is something to think about. Not that it is hard at all to move the radio back to the stock spot if you want to.

-Shane</TD></TR></TABLE>What are you talking about, I have 6 gauges that monitor the performance of my D15B7. I have a short ram which threw off my A/F ratio so I needed to get a voltmeter to regulate that. 6 gauges at night really makes my car look cool. I get looks all the time.

 

i did it and have a tv mounted where my radio used to be. soon to be changing the tv to some gauges. the only thing that sucks is the cup holder lid wont open up all the way with the radio there. but i like it overall, keeps the bright lights off my radio out of my eyes at night. its helps with security also. flip the lid up and its hidden from wondering eyes....
