Installed Kick Panels and interior

Hello,

Just wanted to share some pictures of the kick panels installed with the infinity speakers and alpine CD with IPOD hook up in the center console.

Where did you get the kick panels at? I have a 67 Cutlass supreme convertible that I installed some small 4" speakers in the vent recess. Not too bad of a location but looks a little mickey mouse.

Looks good!, I did my '68 goat 'vert a couple of years ago with the those kick panels and installed the same Infiniti speakers, smart choice, I like the adjustable tweeters, and they even sound good too. I purchased my kick panels from Custom Autosound, I have seen them in parts catalogs too. I have a Pioneer head unit in the glove box and a boat remote hidden in the ash tray so I only have to access it to change CD's. My Vista Cruiser will have plenty of room for a more substantial sound system, a big plasma screen would fit right under the storage compartment lid.

Thanks for the comments.

67CS Ragtop. I bought mine from USA Parts supply along with a bunch of other stuff but they drop shipped from custom auto sounds. I love the look and the sound is great. best of all there is no modification needed and look good.

Eddie Hansen: They sell a set for non AC cars and AC cars like mine as the kick panels are different. They sent me the ones for a non ac car and they have the vents and vent pulls and look really good as well.

Thanks guys and keep OLDS alive!!!!

Thanks bro... I actually saw a set on ebay but they could be knock offs, I think one of the big problems with a rag top is where to put speakers... and of course somebody ripping off your tune machine, and cutting a hole in your top to do it.. (bastids!!) I was looking somehow to put the a stock amfm back in and have a seperate system using my ipod etc.. yours is a very sweet set up

They are more expensive on ebay...custom auto sound makes stereos that look oem with cd changers. if it has a changer you should be able to use it harmon kardon ipod system called idrive. But another way to do it is leave the stock radio in and use your ipod through an amp and there is no need for a functional radio... Ipods make music simple. If the dash was not cut in my car when I bought it thats what I would have done ipod hooked up to the amp.. I did use infinity Kapa 6x9s in the factory spot behind the rear seat and with a good amp I have the car pretty loud very clean sound and no modification
