Thank youuu!!! I've been trying to find what that stuff is called.


I'll try to stick to the rules.. I bought some faux leather steering wheel wrap.. Planning on wrapping the rest aside from my wheel.

"orvis edition" spare tire cover was mentioned...not sure what that is, but I assume the one with the storage pouch.

I picked one up at the junk yard and it holds an amazing amount of random junk.

I hacked out the top part of my door panels of my Laredo and placed in ones from a 95' Country.














Also repainted the old and fading switches to match up with the door handles.

Here's a few from my build thread:

I ended up getting four Kicker DSC5 speakers, a Rockford Fosgate P2D4 8-inch subwoofer (I wanted a 10 inch MTX, but couldn't afford it), a JVC KSAX3502D five-channel amplifier, and an Alpine CDA-9885 stereo. All-in-all, it sounds pretty good!

(The carpet is really not that green!)



I mounted the amp underneath the right rear passenger seat.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on that. He hasn't been here in 9 months and made that post 5 years ago.

That being said, it looks like he just cut out a piece of 16 ga sheetmetal to fit in the ashtray and drilled some holes for the switches.

*****,
NOw that it has been installed a while, how does that set up work? Which radio did you use and any thoughts on it? How is the range? I am looking at getting a CB and mounting it in the OHC but I am afraid the smaller radios will not have the range of a full sized unit.

I literally pulled two of them, brand spanking new, out of the dumpster at my apartment. They were still wrapped in plastic, with orig tags on them.

Anyway, they are meant to be mounted to the tailgate of a truck, so that when it is down, the lid lifts up. I just mounted them with 6 screws into the overhead cross bar supports under the headliner. If I can find more pics I will post them.

They are made by Steel Horse and are called Tail Box, I don't know if they are making them anymore though
