Just kidding. Looks clean. But why did you put the deck in the bottom? I put my CD player in the top so that it was more accesible. Also, when I drive, my fingers just end up at the right place to adjust volume, track etc... (ya ya no remote lol)

the picture itself is only 1 inch by 1 inch and shitty quality...

"yeah, I'd still like to know what the hell the toggle switches are for...."

i put them there to fill in the holes ...

"bummer its an auto, you have my condolences.."

Use one as a switch for your amp if you have plans on a system or have one... see a cop flip the switch.

oky, i got a plan for those toggle switches.. set one of them up to cut power form the coils so u get no spark to your engine.. then for the other toggle switch set it up to power on/off another coil in the back hooked up to a spark plug tapped into your exhaust tip. rev it up dlip the switches and fry some tailgaters!

Dude, I don't know if you know this, but it's now the 21st century. Man has come a long way, and invented some strange devices....back in the 80's a device called a "CD player" became popular. And the 90's saw widespread use of something called a "digital camera," which makes taking instant pictures a breeze.

J/K....right on!

So let me get this straight: Your "customized center console" consists of an RE badge and two toggle switches, and the two toggle switches don't actually DO anything? That's quite the modification...

I say foglights is a good idea, but the OTHER switch....ooooo the other switch should be a kill switch for all lights but the head lights, so you can see when running....

Maybe it's a bad idea, and not to mention ilegal....but I would just love to one day, "race" a cop and "win".....

so long as no one gets hurt, that is
