Re: radio install

I had one in my '27 and could only hear it at redlights. Once I got going it got drowned out by wind and engine noise. I didn't even try in my '23. My Son has one under the seat in his T and he can hear it even though his car is VERY loud, because his Brother installed two big speakers under the dash aiming at him. When we are traveling together I can actually hear his radio clear over in my car when we stop at lights.

But like most of you, I like the engine noises the best.

You wanna impress the kids? Satellite Radio or an iPOD dock and definitely a set of wireless headphones. I had XM radio in my buick and I LOVED it. I think I was paying 10 bucks a month, and I had a "dock" with speakers in my house on my desk. I can take my reciever out of the car (about the size of a GPS) and plug it in in the house. The reciever was I think 50 bucks and the wiring kit was 10bucks. LOVE IT
