| Bill,
| I installed my stereo in the glove box. I took the cardboard glove box
out,
| disassembled, measured and made a new one out of aluminum. Built a
slide-in tray
| for the stereo. Since the car is so small it's not a big deal to adjust it
while
| driving. I also installed small Radio Shack speakers into the headrests.
Works
| and sounds good with the top down at freeway speeds.
