Stereo head unit and speaker replacement

I couldn't hear the OEM stereo with the top down, so I decided to, as cheaply as possible, replace the head unit and speakers. The speakers I purchased were smaller in diameter and circular on oval like the OEM speakers. I took the enclosures from the OEM speakers and make a form with a plastic bag and my new speakers to Great-Stuff foam a new enclosure. I made sure to leave port room. I opted for a pioneer head unit, it seems like a pretty hardy cd transport mechanism. I does have an inverted LCD however. I hate LCDs for car applications because of their horrible performance in the cold. I much prefer the VFDs as used in Kenwoods and other head units, but the price was right. This one does have a neat feature however, The backlight for the LCD is an array of RGB LEDs. I can have virtually any backlight color I choose!

My new used Transmission

I have just acquired a new, used, 6-speed tranny. I bought it online for 750 bucks. A fair price. The 5-speeds are hard to give away now, but the sixers are very desirable.
