Gimme some answers or I cut the dash!

Ok, seriously, I'd never even THINK of cutting my dash, but I've heard mixed reviews about the custom autosound stuff, and Kenwood KRC series stereos are like hens teeth, so...

Has anybody tried one of these Classic Car Audio decks???
Are they just a Custom Autosound knock off?

Anybody have any other suggestions for a AM/FM in the dash without cutting?

Go with the glovebox before you hack the dash!

I cut mine. There is a thread somewhere about it. It's your truck, do what you want - if you do cut it, cut it so that you're able to replace the cutout. But don't think it's heretical to cut it. Cause it ain't.
