DASH: Have you seen an aftermarket digital dash in a pre-1988 Chevy truck?
I'm thinking of putting digital instruments in my 1973 K5 Blazer, but it's a big commitment ($$$) & I've never seen it done. (The company says they don't give info on customers-- you have to find an installation yourself to look at. Fat chance where I live.)
The new instruments will be installed behind the aluminum billet dash inserts in my truck-- should be a good look together.

SUBWOOFER: The interior on my truck's from a '97 Tahoe, so I'm gonna throw the JL Stealthbox in for bass. It replaces the center console between front seats & seems like the most practical, consistent location to put bass in a topless truck (totally changes acoustics when hardtop comes off). Never heard one of these, either. You? http://www.jlaudio.com/stealthbox/gmtruck.html See "For GM Trucks With Bucket Seats."
HEAD UNIT: my simple requirements-- 1.5 din size, radio/cassette/CD. ONLY thing I can find is Jensen's CM715K. http://http://www.jensenaudio.com/cm715k.htm
LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR COMMENTS. My buddy that's doing the installation doesn't like my choice on any of these 3 (dash/ subwoofer/ head unit), & I've never seen/heard ANY of these products. How 'bout you? I just know what I want... at least on paper. Thanks!
