Re: [DML] Re: Radio Upgrade

[Chris Pilcic <chrisdmc82@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am as well putting a new stereo in the car... after a recent trip to indiana > from saint louis.. I discovered i need a new one... I am right now trying to find front speakers that will fit without pushing up the dash... The problem i am finding is all of them have tweeters that are too big... anybody know what works?  As for the back I plan on rebuilding the back wall... and keeping the orig. and putting new speakers in there... facing the front of the car.. also XM radio is in the works... oh and as for the ant... mine doesn't work either... the motor is out...
