One of my all-time pet peeves! I actually have been doing this since I was 17 years old (1998) because I simply couldn't afford to buy the install kit and decided to improvise instead!

Huge pet peeve...(stereo hack installs) just finished restoring one of the worst hack jobs on my buddys sn95. Fixing his Mach 460 stock system with a new nice head unit. Perfect rant Chris lol. Appreciate you man. Keep up with great content and hard work.

@BlueOvalTavern Год назад

that is beautiful! My dad hacked up the whole dash of my 89 GT vert when he had it. Monster tach holes, cell phone holder holes, crappy head unit plate holes, cut speaker wiring, and cut stereo wiring. I used plastic weld and patience to repair the holes in the dash & console, but I have yet to fix the head unit wiring that was cut up.

“We’re just not being hacks.” LOL Great, informative video for new Fox owners.

@mattk7827 Год назад

Love this video Chris. These are the little nuggets of information that help keep clean cars from being butchered!

@chrisstephenson8311 11 месяцев назад

Man Chris this is what I’ve been doing for years on all the foxs I’ve had👍🏻👍🏻 this is what happens when you have OCD! I remember getting the install kits and I’m like “I’m not screwing in to my dash like that”

@randybelcher6693 Год назад

Very informative! I'm dealing with this exact situation and it's frustrating, brand new interior and that "wallet holder" flying out everytime I'd touch the gas a little, lol

@paulhudgins5120 Год назад

Very nice information Chris, yes please use the connectors for the speaks, it makes life easier.

@jasongomez2513 Год назад

Always love to see 👀 new things to do for our foxes

Great video! Just replaced my factory radio and no holes 🙏

@chuckp7970 Год назад

How about a double Din install?

Love the video! Great tip for keeping the interior minty!

Best explained on RU-vid. I will do exactly like this. Thanks!

Good idea. I rock stock stereos but nice to know about the wiring too

@dennish9519 Год назад

When I have anything to my car I always took the angle of "what if I want to undo this" Yeah it may take a few extra minutes or parts but if you ever want to undo it, it can be undone easily. Thanks for the good video.

@306foxbody1 Год назад

Nice clean install!! There's nothing worse than hacked up wiring... I just went through some of this a week ago! Awesome video!

@tomgeoghegan9173 Год назад

Looking good! Looks like things are nice and busy. I ;m in MD. Ai'm about to look at an 86 SVO. I used to own one back in 2004. It actually looks really nice...

@spencerochko7758 Год назад

I know this video is older, but I'm hoping notifications will bring you back here. I'm working on bringing my Grandpa's 89 GT vert back to life. He didn't take the best care of the interior and the entire stereo is without paint or real function. I want to replace it with something modern, without doing irreparable damage. What size stereos can fit when you do the install as shown in the video? Might be a dumb question but I've been searching high and low and I'm no closer than I was.

@Riffs_Garage Год назад

im right there with you. i cant stand to work on a car thats had the radio installed half-assed!

@elmostong1865 Год назад

Great Tip!!

@jasonquinn588 Год назад

That’s the way I always done that for years until I upgraded to the double din stereo… that’s when mine got drilled… let’s face it… you put anything in that fake cubby hole… it flies out as soon as you turn the corner!!! That hole was originally designed for the ford equalizer that was an option… if you didn’t have that… you got the fake cubby hole… a new double din radio fits the hole perfectly!!!! Looks like it was made for it!!!!!!!

@floydmarseeii4007 Год назад

Great information!!! It would be nice if there was more information on the earlier foxes 🦊. Mine’s a 85

@madeemhategaming5815 11 месяцев назад

Wow nice video bro

@elliottbutts153 Год назад

To late, mine had aftermarket radio when I got it and the 4 screws in the corners. I never gave it any thought because there are exposed screws on a few things on these cars. Nothing like cars from the 50’s-70’s where a screw was used from the factory to attach/secure just about everything. Just a reminder to myself about how imperfect my car is, thanks lol. 👍🏻 Btw the exact same head unit is in my Fox.

@dm7097 Год назад

Two things I absolutely hate doing to ANY car, 1) drilling holes 2) hacking up the factory wiring.

@bobanmilz6512 Год назад

You can modify a 1993 Cobra R radio delete plate also.

@whitelx 16 дней назад

Did this years ago with mine. However, with hard launches on ET Streets the head unit came flying out because the pocket was just sitting there. I glued the pocket in place and haven’t had an issue since. Sure, it forever limits me to single DIN head units, but I don’t really care.

@joncarnes5100 Год назад

Mine had screws when I got it. Any tips on filling them and making it look right?

@TheInfamousProject Год назад

You'd have to plastic weld, fill, sand, paint

@adamcartwright6220 Год назад

Where can I find those connectors for the dash speakers? Very cool install. My car still has all original and I’ve been beating myself up about whether or not to change it. This way I can always go back original. Thanks man.

@TheInfamousProject Год назад

Just added to the description!

@BigStickStangs Год назад

Great info and video! It will definitely never be hoes in my Console! Not cool to hack Foxes ! 👊😎✌️

@eddylorenzo5033 Год назад

I put my equalizer in that empty counsel under radio

@troesplain 6 месяцев назад

What size speakers fit in the dash?

@TheInfamousProject 6 месяцев назад

3.5"

I wish someone good with audio would show how to properly bypass the factory amp or tap into it. Been wanting to change the head unit in my 93, but I don’t want to loose any of the speakers by doing so.

@TheInfamousProject Год назад

Pretty easy to do as explained just get the black connector from the back and bypass the amplifier

@_Livid_ Год назад

@@TheInfamousProject heard you mention that in the video, I guess I’m just having a hard time understanding how the two connectors tie into the one that plugs into the radio. Wiring isn’t my strong area either, I can hook up some speaker adapters and plug them in, but I’m more of a nuts and bolts kind of guy.

@unemployed96 Год назад

I bet you feel like I do everytime you see one of those flipped ac control kits.

@louisavello5390 Год назад

claim that radio, put it with my cobra 😈

@AwakeDude911 Год назад

i liked that video ...what you talk'n about fool ? famous words of MR. T

@lr7993 Год назад

Or need that Bluetooth hook up

@dannysublett1014 Год назад

This and stop putting the aftermarket tach drilled into the nice pretty clean dash pad. 99% of you aren't driving a racecar so you don't need it anyway

@wgterry73ify 5 месяцев назад

Let's be fair.... I love foxbodys and have owned something like 7 of them... But Ford was the first one to destroy the interior... When they designed it ;)
