Re: Do you like where I put my radio.
nice dash repair
but in some neigbourhoods that under dash means ez smash and removal
we have windows broken in all the time for gps,cloths, too even small change
but then again they stole a boat motor,then went back 2 weeks for the boat/trailer AND the NEW motor !!

in my other truck i went top right
but my AC wasn't working
might be able to move the AC down some?

Re: Do you like where I put my radio.
I got the radio box at Best Buy. The radio is not in the way of the brake pedal. The truck came with an AM- FM- CD player in area of the original radio. I had a terrible time getting the dash bezel out. I can now remove the radio real easy if it breaks. I park my truck in my garage all the time. If I park at a motel I will take the face plate off, and put a bag over it , and have garbage in the bag. Maybe a thief will think there is no radio in the truck. If they steal it I will buy a new one. The truck was used by a government agency. It has a lot of holes in the dash. I just want a nice ride with a nice sounding radio. It is my rat rod truck. Here is a pic of the Mercury I built 30 years ago. I don't want a truck that looks that good. I would be afraid it might get scratched.
