So I really don't like to post every little thing but this was a big project.

I installed the retrosound stereo with correct knobs and pretty close bezel.
Kept the original front speakers because anything else that small even new will sound like crap.

Used the Scosche floating ground adapter to use existing wires
and a less expensive set of pioneer 4 x 6 speakers for the rear incase a leak gets to them before I get to the leaks.

For the middle I used my Bose Subwoofer computer AV setup that has just been sitting around.

Total for a really respectable home sounding system on house power with a remote and in the dash set-up...

$208.00 thanks to the home Bose that was gathering dust.

Here is a link to the pic of the almost finished product.

Curt, I just installed one of those in our vdub towd. Simple, straightforward, works great, and looks like it came in the vdub. You will like it.
