i got me a new alpine radio and i had a heck of a time getting installed. i really didnt have a problem til i started putting everything back together. first the radio itself was too long so there wasnt enough clearance. then when i tried to put the faceplate back on, it wouldnt fit under the radio so i had to cut the whole bottom of it off. then i couldnt get it to fit flush so i had to cut the corner off of the plastic piece that goes around the radio. :banghead: . but i finally got it to fit and it sounds completely AWESOME.

with a little patience and finesse you coulda made it fit without cutting anything.

a couple weeks ago i was helping my cousin put a new cd player in his 99 camaro and it was too long also so we took a dremel and was cutting out pieces of plastic and it caught on fire....was pretty funny!
