[QUOTE="JohnnyBighead, post: 8515648, member: 670560"] I have a 1973 FJ40 and want to put some kind of simple setup in it. I would like to leave the original radio in for a clean, classic look. I think the best way to go is a bluetooth, headunitless setup and I will play music from my phone. For that, I am thinking the best option is a marine/atv/golf cart controller and amp. I will then build some boxes for 6x9s that go under the jump seats in the back. Am I on the right track? Here are the products I am looking at now.
