Mangled radio compartment - help or suggestions please
Probably pretty common, but the last owner did some cutting for a newer radio. I would like to install a radio so I can jam out to some Rush now and again. Anyone have any suggestions on a radio that I could make work with this mess? Also, I will need speakers. Wondering if those kick panel speakers that you see in the magazines would suffice.

Yeah man. 2112.
They sell patch panels for the radio area. Brothers, etc should have it. When I took out my can gas tank i built a speaker box and also on side of box installed a round bluetooth stereo used for boats. Toggle switch under dash to turn it on Kept the original am working too this way. Just a though

Cool.
They also sell hidden Bluetooth radios. They are reasonable cost when I was considering that.
