Re: [DML] Stereo System upgrade.

Hey Guys, thanks for the info on the stereo upgrade.
That was a fun little project.
I used a dremel to cut out the dash. It worked fine, but you really have to 
take your time.
I started at 1 in the afternoon and didnt get done till 8. So if anyone is 
thinking of cutting into
your dash, pen in a whole days worth of cutting.
