Interior / Stereo Upgrades COMPLETE! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

After a few days, I'm finally done.. Installed a new steering wheel and stereo consisting of a Alpine Head unit, 6.5" front Pioneers, 6x9 rear Infinity's and a Rockford 10" sub and amp. I'm very happy will how everything came out.. After the pics were taken, I got black car mats.

Big thanks to Jeff and CaptKaos (Chris) for making these speaker holders.. both sets worked out great.

Here's an old pic of the truck.. I put new caps and rings and painted the grille. Once I get it washed up I'll post another pic.

nice, like the steering wheel "what transformers autobot does it turn in to"

You're not done.. you're just at a pausing point for now.

Looks nice and I like the rear corner setup but my seatbelt retractor is mounted in the way of where the top part would be so I haven't figured out what I'm gonna do yet.

No backs, no room for them with the speakers installed. Factory 4x10's didn't have backs either.

did you make the the holders for the 6.5 front speakers or can you buy them?
