Quotedo i cut the kick panels that are cheap


the problem with that is  that you can't press the emergency  brake on . unless you leave the grills off  but i don't like the way they look without the grills   :cheers:

No, No, No you got it all wrong Stuart, you need to put one of those convertable rollbars in it with the speakers mounted directly on the bar!! The speakers would be closer to your head therefore EXCELLENT sound with the top down!!!!  :smilielol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

cut the doors.  speakers in the kick panel are about as useless as speakers in the nose.  I'm not sure how you'll get away with not using the grilles, either, considering Pioneer is going too want their stuff seen.  Also, can you send back the 6x9's and get some 4 or 5.25 rounds for the rear?


Cool stuff--I'd put that in Marty in a heartbeat!

the 6 X 9's are going in boxes on the floor  , those convertible rear panels cost me over 700.00 bucks  no way in hell i will ever cut those .  I do have the original set that is all cracked but they could be all fiberglasses out with speaker boxes build in  .  :icon_smile_big: west coast customs style  :nana: 

  The car is going to sit in the pioneer booth on the power tour , they are not pushing to have there logo showing in the car . What they want to show is that you can put there stuff in your muscle car and not totally ruin the period look .   :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs: I told them up front i wanted a more stealthy look and they sent the stuff right out anyway  .

that's even better!


speaking of radios, I was looking for one I KNOW I own when I was cleaning out the garage this spring.  it drove me nuts that I couldn't find it.  I took Marty for a short ride last weekend and went 'oh...'  I'd installed it before Indy and forgot  :icon_smile_blackeye:

You're doing the power tour? Cool !!! 
I had it planned to go with the bird but the lady that was going to watch Sandra for me just had to have brain tumors removed.

Have fun. Maybe I can go next year.

I was planning to meet up in Miami and finish up in Austin. Miami's about two hours from here and then it would be about seven hours back home from Austin. The power tour might not be that close to me again for a few years.

you guys can't mention both "period look" and "pioneer stereo" without revisiting our old friend.

tell the guys in the pioneer booth that they should bring him back for a modern photo shoot.
