I'm going to be putting a deck in my 85 gs. Last time I did this I used a Metra kit. It worked, but looked kinda cheap. Does anyone no of any better kits, or have any tips on making your own. I want it to look nice, and don't want to attract to mutch attention. I have thought of leaving the factory tuner in place, in hopes that it would deter theft.

Any ideas?

 

Would this work for you?

Once the detachable face is removed from the deck it's just a wall of stainless with two openings in it. Thieves know right away it's not going to be a grab-and-pull job to get it out.

 

Prodcut placement, eh Manntis... oh well, I'd rather buy one from you than some big corporation... plus, yours look 10x better...

 

hey I have 20 more of these to sell

 

Damn it Manntis...If I had an 84-85 Id buy one, but I dont...I have an 83 , sorry bro.

no worries

 

No worries as in "Too bad, dawg!" or no worries as in "I'm working on those model years as we talk, my fine fellow, now finish the bass box in your other RX-7, RMD..."?????????

 

...a little from column A, a little from column B...

 

A, B, or C Manntis... Are you saying...


A. Too bad, now go finish your box, RMD!

B. Dawg, I'm working on these model years as we speak!

C. Dawg, now go finish your box?


When I get cash I will get one.. cause I know you can modify the 79/80 dashes for them to fit...

Thanx, LAterz, ANdrew

 

Wheres the picture of it uninstalled. I wanna see it

 

Ah, the enigmatic Manntis is going to leave us hanging! I knew I shouldn't have poked at him in the MMO thread!

 

Hey Mantis I tried to order one of your stereo mount. its not letting me order. what am I doing wrong??

 

Guys theres not gonna be a kit for a 79-80 or a 81-83 These are cut the dash/substructure a little cars.. I have done a TON of them..

 

Manntis! Say it ain't so!!

 

81firstgen, I dunno - I just tested it and it's working... do you have a paypal account? It's all done through paypal

 

I HATE unfinished projects, but with no money and the need for that new engine, its been on hold a LONG time...I promise you some day, it WILL be done

ahh ok dont have paypal. guess ill just have my girlfriend do it. deffinetly want the one with the triple gauge. make things real tidy.

 

What did you use to get your console piece to look so shiny and black. It looks great, not like you spray painted it or anything.

 

My center dash console, the switchplate for the power window switches, and the instrument surround are all painted Sparkling Black Metallic (H1) with 2 coats of clearcoat.

I had them painted by the bodyshop when they repaired collission damage. They did it at no charge as pretty much every bodyshop pads their bills ot the insurance company anyhow.
