Anybody with music know you gotta keep vibration to a minimum.....before this my rear deck
sounded horrible. It was a must that I dynamatted the back. Sound sooo much clearer (the bass).







Keep in mind everything so far I've done own my own

[alsa2009]

Whewwwwwwwww I havent even got started good Im just warming up

I knew that I would be taking out the dash to get it painted so I decided to get
a fresh deck to replace my single din........so I chose this niccccce isnt it well

Well this is where the fun begins.....since I have a older model vic, the opening where the HU is, isnt a true
double din opening, its a 1.5. Soooooo yep I had to replace the whole air duct system from a 03 model vic.

SERIOUSLY U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME. So I had to put on my junkyard clothes and tear down a 03 vic dash
to get a darn air duct just to fit a double din in the ride

NO DASH.......







Yeah this right here aint no joke either wheewwwww

[mast240]

def got your electrical on point bro, looks good....

and if your looking (even tho their not the best) i have a VERY good hook up on red tops

[alsa2009]

Old air duct before i took it out



Old one at top....replacement one on the bottom


Almost look identical


Look closely at the top one. It has a true double din opening, as to my factory
one, the air duct slants in the back not allowing the double din to got all the way
in.



So next time yall see a Vic with double din poking out is cause they didnt change
out that air duct.

It takes sacrifice sometimes but its worth it in the end lol

Being the person that I am. I like to do things on my own soooo when it came to doing my interior, I wanted
to pick my own fabrics, colors, textures and etc. So for some months I would search the web forums, call around
and order up a bunch of FREE swatches from different vendors

INTERIOR
Some blues for the seats

Now for the headliner. Which was the hardest cause everybody I talked to said they didnt
wanna put the ostrich skin up cause it would sag over time, and if it was vinyl, it had
to have a foam backing inorder to work.



Found this on ebay from a boat place in connecticut pish
