Truck Tunes - New Stereo

I finally sprang for some new tunes. I got my old radio from a friend back in high school and its been in there for 28 years, along with the RadioShack speakers that I mounted on the kick boards. That thing still worked, just made noise so lately I never turned it on.

I didn't want to cut the dash but since my older brother hacked it long ago, I cut it out for the DIN. Found a piece of aluminum at ACE hardware in the hobby section since the holes still showed around the face plate. Gonna miss that plywood faceplate.

I wasn't going to cut my doors for speakers so I found some that fit under the seat.

Total cost for everything was $140. Sounds pretty decent and loud enough to give me (additional) hearing damage. Looks a little out of place in my old truck, though.
