86 f/s CD deck and speaker project

[71cutlass]

I am planning on upgrading the stereo from factory mono setup, to CD player and new speakers. Any ideas? Planning on a simple setup, deck in the dash, and maybe 6 1/2 in speakers in the doors( of course cutting is required). I use the space behind the seat for storage of tools etc., so no speakers there. Also should add, the truck is no beauty queen, base model red. I just want something I can hear over the wind noise. Thanks in advance.

If you're going with a simple setup, all you need to know is you need to cut out a hole where the CD player will go. The factory radio has metal behind the plastic, there is a hole for the tuner/tape, and for each knob, that's it. Also, generally red is positive and black is ground.
