Default aftermarket stereo is in

Hi all:

Just a thanks to all on the forum that have posted info. With your help my stereo went in without a hitch. Upgraded the front to component and will do the back speakers next year. Crossovers in the armrest. Got a jvc a 725 as it was on sale and it has steering controls hook up ( not done yet ) and illumination dimmer wire, also antenna control . Rev Sams videos were great as taking the door off was made much easier. Also put an antenna switch in. System sounds great and had some plastic from an old worn out armrest which I made the bezel. Not OEM looking but not bad.
Only thing I would of changed is putting the car in gear as the gear shift pole was in the way when getting the console out .

Tks again to all

Rev Sam:

Tks for the link. Its great work you are doin there. With ebay and the internet it almost makes owning on of these painless (haha) But without those resources ( and people like you ) I would never have considered one of these beauties ) Is it just me or is the plastic on these well cheap !!!!!
Tks again for the door video and I hope to add somehow to the forum.

Howard

I appreciate the kind words, but I really want to see pics! I'm considering doing something to my stereo, I just don't know what yet.
