CD player in my truck! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

krue · 03-05-2004, 12:56 AM

With all the stuff my truck really NEEDS, I decided to put a CD player in it today.

But before CPNE cranks up Boz-All on me,
I had an Alpine tape deck in the dash....so I just installed a Kenwood 10 disc changer I have had for a while, with one of those controllers that plugs into the antenna wire ($3 at a salvage store).

So I get to listen to CD's with the knowledge that a dash was not sacrificed to do it!

Your PM box is full.

**CPNE** · 03-05-2004, 12:50 PM

I'm glad you didn't "Boz-All it up"

I believe the dash is one of the distinctive features of this era (you don't see such elegance of lines combined with simplicity of function anymore), and there are many alternatives to cutting if one gives it enough fore-thought.

But to be honest, I really don't care how anybody approaches their project. The "Boz-All" thing is just for fun, and 99% of you take it that way. The other 1%, well...

Back on topic, good for you krue!

krue · 03-05-2004, 01:16 PM

BTW I have a patch panel for the middle dash that I cut out of a truck headed to the junkyard if anybody needs one.

neonlarry · 03-05-2004, 09:13 PM

Hey Krue I could sure use that patch panel, take a look at this, how much?

Try to take some pics after I get my knobs.

I still need some different speakers, using the little boxes that come stock on F@#d Rangers. They fit under the seat fairly well.

krue · 03-06-2004, 10:33 AM

neonlarry here is front view of panel

krue · 03-06-2004, 10:34 AM

As you can see I cut it oversized.

Here is the back.

krue · 03-06-2004, 10:38 AM

Hey, it wasn't until I looked at the pic that I noticed two little holes drilled above the cigarette lighter.

Well,let me know if you still want it.
