Got the old stereo out and the center console. Tomorrow I've got to turn it into a well vented case. This is going to be good.

Just got my first batch of parts in today. The drive was a bit crazy with the roads being all iced up. Wasn't even able to leave the house until after 3pm. Going to start work on the custom case tomorrow.
