Was wanting to put my cd player somewhere in the car and was wandering on the best place.

Under the stearing wheel or in the middle vents are the two main options as everone knows.

Don't suppose anyone has pictures of it all and how they did it. Just don't wanna damage anything when cutting or removing things (as the dash is what everyone see's)

Thanks guys

yeh was hoping to do it in the fron vents. think the overhead conversion sounds like quite alot of work (as you will need to take all the speaker phono and power leads up the piller and into the roof.

have you seen the other thread? info on my services are there

Hey,

I saw the post about being able to put a cd player where the tape deck is, I was just wandering if you had to cut the original fascia where the tape deck is or if you put a new smaller fascia on instead?

Cheers

As stated elsewhere in a more subtle way...

I'd rather you didn't pimp your services out....
