Radio finally in!

Post by ~Sam~ » Mon Oct 08, 2007 6:28 pm

After the wiring saga here are the pics of the lovely radio in!

As you can see here... it wasnt pretty inside...

Image

the plates that hold the dial prongs had been completely bent inwards and the bottom had been hacked and folded downwards

Image

but got the radio in and I think it looks pretty damn good!
