I know this may seem elementary to most of you, but I am just starting on this project and I literally have no exp. in doing these things my self but I'm wanting to learn and do most of these types of things on my own, anyhow first "major"(minor) thing I have done on this car switched that GOD for-saken stock radio, speakers coming soon. (really good ones!)
started taking things apart

i must say of all this was a disgusting process if you haven't cleaned your vents out you should because there was about 3 inches of pure black dirt and grime behind the surface blowing in my face , cleaned everything with BLEACH
look how bad it was

i guess thats what happens when you rarely drive a car and leave it sitting in arizona
my stuff to work with

the pos is out

took some time do the wiring with the adapter thing but i did it
now to decide what color?






purple,red, green, yellow, white, light blue, or dark blue ??

Actually, I remember when looking at her car, she didn't have a power antenna. It was one that just stayed up all the time. You're going to make her think that her car is broken .
