well, to each their own..that is what makes this place so much fun.

i have a custom autosound 'secret audio' radio buried under my dash, 2 big humping speakers under the dash, antennae buried behind the foot kick panel on pass side and a big power amp in the trunk neither radio nor speakers show ,except for infra red control face panel that is about 2x4 inches under the dash. that too can be swiveled up virtually out of sight or attached with velcro.

now, you dont get great 'music' ( would be vastly improved if i had cockpit speakers ) , and some would say ya get 'noise', but it does provide me with something to listen to in 5th gear, or when slowly cruising around town or at car shows . it can be heard in most circumstances but not at higher rpm range. if i had to do it over again, i would just mount the radio on the underside of the dash and say screw the critics.

i take several 4-6 hr one way trips a summer in the spf, and in 5th gear on those long drives the tunes from the radio are nice to listen to . musical side pipes and inside music speakers. works for me . bill
