I installed a new stereo (CD/MP-3/Sirius) and CB into my dash recently.

Kenwood X659 Stereo and CB in the Dash. The trim piece around it needs work, but it will do for now.



The assortment of antennas on the back of Tonka. From left to right: GPS, Sirius Satellite Radio, and CB.

Full view of the dash.

Looks good. How do you like the kenwood? I've been thinking of getting that same unit, but was curious on the speed switching between mp3 tracks?

Did you take out the sunroof to take that pic?

Honestly I've had it on the Sirius Satellite and only played about 30 minutes of MP3's since I got it. I haven't noticed any delays between tracks. At least nothing I find annoying. When you initially load the disc, it can take up to a minute or two to index the data on the disc.

Mine doesn't have a sunroof. It was taken with a flash from the back seat for the wide shot and in the front seat for the close up.

Excuse me for being ignorant, but a clinometer is for lean angles when wheeling?

Yes there was some speculation on one of the boards about what angle the X will roll over. I've seen the clino over the rear view to a little over 35 degrees on an off camber hill. I think it was Brent that took photos with his at 40 or 45 degrees
