I've never changed a tire, so to you too!

Installing something that is designed to plug in is really simple. I got a Chilton's manual from the library and went at it. The "exploded" view of how the dash is put together makes it simple to take apart. I also installed new speakers in the doors and behind the rear seats - again, just plugging stuff into the right places, not a custom job. Anybody can do it with the proper reference material

It took me a while to get the speakers done, so I drove around with a disassembled rear seat for a while. Of course the dash needed an afternoon to go from start to finish so I could actually drive it.

It was so worth it - the stock deck had begun eating tapes, and my aftermarket radio had the line in. Even though it was an old deck by then (and still is but works well) it was a no-brainer. It was a cheap radio too - I'm still shocked that a line-in isn't standard these days.

Enjoy, Snowflake! Welcome to the club!
