Re: New radio installed

Re: New radio installed
Every part of my truck has been cut, modified, and changed in someway. Stock is boring. The dash pad and ashtray are shaved already. lol

Re: New radio installed
Right on brother. Why not install the best stuff you can. The new audio equipment is so much better than the old.

Re: New radio installed
Very good! Looks nice. I gotta get this done, too.
Where did you get that chrome bezel from? I'm planning to use a Dremel w/ a metal cutting blade--how did you do yours? Thanks! |
