It sounds "okay" but the ergonomics just plain SUCK...

You know, some Miatas had a nice factory Pioneer setup with CD player, it looks to be the same height (2.5 DIN) as the GSL/SE radio, and it's the proper silver color.
Yes, They DO look nice..

Well the black looks a touch out of place, but it's growing on me. I always have the option of re-doing my install w/ some kind of silver metal, or just painting the current bracket silver, but I'm really starting to like the look.

Waitaminute, Directfreak... I can't find TLoRaH anywhere in the US, not even Amazon.com carries it, I had to download it all off of Napster!

...or is that just what you did?

If you're referring to the Land of Rape and Honey..
(took me while to figure it out )

I have abosolutely no idea. That's not my system.
I just ran across it while looking for Car MP3 systems.

I don't even know if that's a good song..is it?

it's a song, and it's a CD, neither of which available in the US as far as I can tell...

but if it's not your system, ah, nevermind then. It depends on what type of music you listen to... I first heard the song on a compilation of covers, and I loved it... I don't like the original, though. One of my favorite songs is on that CD, and even though I have every possible version of that song I still don't have a CD copy of the original. AFAICT the CD is basically like the rest of the late 80's Ministry albums, if you like them.

I thought of that too...

It's a nice backup plan... Maybe I'll try and pick one up and try it out in the GSL...

Ill try to get some pics of the pocket. We dont got a digital camera, so its a pain in the a**. Also, that little black controller thingy hooked up to that LCD and CD changer, its made by Sony for the Xplod systems. I was thinking of mounting one where the little joystick is since it no longer works. Only problem is FINDING that damn little thing. Nobody seems to have one!

What I did guys and it worked marvelously for me was, I took the stock decks big aluminum or stamped steel mounted bracket, and drilled 2 new holes to perfectly line up with the holes in the side of my deck at the top of the center, than with the spare glove compartment i screwed it into the back of the trim panel and now my cars got a deck than glove pocket glove pocket and it looked pretty stock looking, but of course i have an aftermarket deck... but... it worked good and made me happy and + no thief is ever gonna just pop my deck out, its held in by like 4 screws on the side of the bracket, and 4 that hold the bracket to the entire dashboard structure

Sorry its late, look at the pictures i edited into it simply put i drilled holes in the stock decks mounting bracket, and screwed my deck into the bracket...

My deck had some tappings in the side so i took some good measurements to make it line up perfectly and it did mounted in nice and solid and the perfect depth
