| With some plastic surgery the factory DIN and a half radio location now hauses a double DIN Eclipse 7301 CD receiver. Below the vent is the remote display and volume control for a Valentine One radar detector along with IR eyes for the audio / video equipment and a bass control knob. |

| The factory center console was tossed in favor of a custom made one to house all the audio / video equipment. In the front is a slightly modified Panasonic DVD player followed by two Eclipse 8 Disc CD changers, a Timeport cell phone, audio video selector and a VCR with built in TV tuner. Notice neither the factory storage bin or cup holders were sacrificed. |
