[DML] Stereo Installation (was Re: Audio system solutions?)

["gzapf" <x86Daddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hunt down some local people who are car stereo enthusiasts and get
their recommendations...  One of the local big chains may have good
people working there who can do a good, clean install, but that is
exceptional.  The more expensive, specialty car audio shops tend to do
a much better job, but it ultimately comes down to who's the installer.

Print out instructions on all neeeded panel removals, etc... for the
installer (or for yourself).  This will be tremendously helpful in
avoiding damage / making it clean.  There are some wonderful guides to
console removal, speaker installation (in factory spots though),
etc... that I used during my install:

Center Console:

Rear Speakers:

Front Speakers:

Mad props to the authors and hosts of the referenced info!

Also note that the factory harness / wiring has common grounds for
front and back, which you probably don't want.  This means that you'll
at least slightly change the way you use the harness, and probably run
new wires.  Email off list for my specific method, and I'll recollect
it, if desired.
