[DML] DIN Stereo Mounting Plates (was: Re: Radio)

["cupsdmc" <cupsdmc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well I got my new DIN size radio in last night, and yes I thought 
about it 10 times.  Do I cut or don't I cut into the mounting 
bracket.  I finally came to the realization that I probably will 
never want to go back to the older knob style radios, and I doubt my 
car will ever be in a museum.  The coversion took a couple of hours. 
Careful taping, and measuring and cut it out with a jig saw and 
touched it up afterwards with a dremel tool.  A speaker upgrade will 
have come this winter.
