240zip Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 There just doesn't seem to be that many options for a good clean installation. I'm left with a SST remote audio and LCD controller option, one of the vintage audio installations, or chopping up my dash. I'm not going to chop or cut the dash. Well ... it's not something I really want to do ... perhaps I could take a bezel that's already chopped and use that. I have two OEM radios. I'm currently leaning towards one of the 'hidden' radio options. I'd like to mount the OEM AM/FM simply because of the look. It just seems that this 'hidden' option is like 5 years behind state-of-the-art. They sell color LCD-based MP3 players for under $20 with FM transmitters. You'd think someone could create a better alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) I know it's not about the radio, but I made this subwoofer box out of MDF to fit behind the seats. It houses two 8" subs. I wanted everything to be out of sight. Still plenty of room to lean the seats back! http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg19/john655/photo4.jpg http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg19/john655/photo2.jpg Edited February 2, 2011 by John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKZX Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 John, is that in an s30? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Yea! It's in a 1975 280Z, right behind the seats. Or where the seats would be, but I'm doing an interior restoration at the moment so it's gutted. It fits behind my seats, and I have a knock off set of Corbeau's, and they're huge. So there would be even more clearance with factory seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKZX Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Cool, looks good. I'm slowly working on something similar for my S130, how do they sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I haven't had a chance to hear it yet. My interior is in pieces and the stereo will be the last thing to go in. As soon as I hear it I'll let you know. Do you have any pictures of yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
