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 .

Looking good T.J.! Makes me want to go rip out my stock 83' radio and eq.
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

His idea also incorperates either a pocket under the radio, or a tri-gague unit. Both units also include a slide out cup holder for those ice cold beverages after you finish your install and are crusing the roads .

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.

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 **** 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 ****, I prefered the **** in my Dads GSL-SE (car I drove with my permit in). So, I swapped it out for the later model .
