So i tried posting this a few days ago, but the computer is being....
So in the last 2 months i've been stockpiling stuff to upgrade the audio and communications in my car. This includes a new stereo system and a CB radio.
I'll start with the stereo. All this stuff came from Crutchfield.com this is a great place because they tell you what works in your car and what wont, also great customer service. All included is a Kenwood KDC-138 Headunit, 6.5" KFC-1660S speakers (rear), 5.25" KFC-1362S speakers (front), speaker baffles for both sets, new AM/FM antenna, and all the wiring harnesses and jazz that crutchfield sends with their stuff.
The CB is a Cobra 18WXSTII with a 4' Firestik tuneable tip antenna mounted on a door jamb mount with a heavy duty spring.
Both the stereo and CB are going into the existing double DIN spot that the factory stereo is occupying at the moment. It will look something like this.

Also while me and my dad were in' to see how to remove the dash, we decided to fix the bushing in my shifter which caused a lot of left-right freeplay in it. We opened up the housing and saw that one bushing was cracked in half and the other had completely disintegrated.
Now that it's fixed, it works great! I'll keep ya'll posted with some pics of the install as it happens, still waiting for a little warmer temps to do it
