Just finished my interior
Well, the other day I picked up an unbroken stereo surround, and analog clock. I have a GSL which (for those who dont know) came with a joystick balance/fader control rather than a clock, and an equalizer rather than a pocket. Since the stereo was going to be replaced by an aftermarket unit that doesnt need these things, I pulled them out, and slowly collected the proper pieces. I got them all in today, and fixed all wiring issues. So now I have my stereo installed, the pocket, and clock all in working order. the stereo is temporarily only wired to the front speakers, but the rears will come soon enough. Also, you all know how much I love my digi, so I took some pics for ya too :).
~T.J. PS - I also added a page on my Car Domain site. If you wanna check it out, the link is in my sig :). https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1245598 https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1245634 https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1245646 |
Looking good T.J.! Makes me want to go rip out my stock 83' radio and eq. :D
oh, and I like how the smoke on the cig lighter is aligned properly. I do that too. |
Yeah but does it play "oldies"...
Looking gr8, T.J.
I've been wanting to replace mine, but I hate to give up my OEM setup AND that's a big hole to fill if I pull all three units out. Been looking at some double-din stuff, but nothing I like so far. Plus whatever I get could ONLY play the Oldies. No rap or hip-hop allowed ;) https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1245960 |

Both units also include a slide out cup holder for those ice cold beverages after you finish your install and are crusing the roads :). ~T.J. PS - Welcome to the board, you'll find some good stuff here :). Also, from what you describe, you may have an S model. the common ones are (from lowest to highest), S, GS, GSL, and GSL-SE. http://www.wigglepup.com/RX-7/products/stereomount3.jpg http://www.wigglepup.com/RX-7/products/stereomount4.jpg |

except you might wanna clean it up i can see those monkey prints on the radio |
Haha, yeah. I dont really care that much. Theyre just fingerprints :).
~T.J. |
yeah vacuum that carpet too! :D
|
Ok Ok...Damn. So Im a little behind on cleaning the car...What can I say, Im sorry :(.
~T.J. |
busy getting busy in his front seat!!!!! hell yah!!! keep it up..... p/s nice radio!
|
p/s nice radio! ~T.J. |
Hey I have a 83 GSL too!! Yeah I plan on changing the stock radio, can I connect the aftermarketradio to the EQ and joystick thingy? Is that a stock boot on ur shifter?
|
You probably could, but I dont see why you would want to. I personally think that running all new wire and everything would be better than using all the old stuff, which is why I did it the way I did.
As far as the shifter goes, its stock, but for an 84. Both the boot and the knob are out of an 84. Im surprised no one with their eagle eyes noticed it before ;). I wasnt fond of the pistol grip type 83 shift knob, I prefered the knob in my Dads GSL-SE (car I drove with my permit in). So, I swapped it out for the later model :). ~T.J. |
I just thought I would sneek a peek of my stereo setup in my se hope no one minds. heh My Radio
|
Oh, man, I dunno about that diamond pleat steel plate....do you have it on the floors also? The met red is a nice color, though,,,it's just those diamond pleats...:p:
|
I was giving it thought to putting some down on the floor board, maybe also building an amp rack with it when I change my stereo install
|
Ooof....well, if you do, make sure the exterior paint is that same candy met red so it all ties together...pretty sweet lil' color...:cool:
|
see thats why I dont know if I am going to, I wanna keep the outside black, my flame window tint sticks out better, and Im having a lil flame design ghosted into the paint on the body between the side windows to connect one window to the other. I'm trying to be kinda different.
