Head unit crapped out, CB goes in its place.

Shorten your shifters!

I like this spot but I don't because if ever in wreck, you can bet my leg will be broken. But O well.

Shorten your shifters!

The trans shifter is the only really long one...and everyone who has driven it so far has agreed with the placement.

For the rest of 'em...

Not too long. If I can find something cooler to make the levers out of then I will. The cutting brakes need to be that long for the leverage.

The bigger problem is I'm a short guy with short arms.

So did you steal the transmission shifter out of a UPS truck?

:cheers:

 

[vetteboy]

Nah...it came with the transmission*. And I actually cut and rotated it a little bit, too.

Fixed it for ya! (meet the robinsons....after reading it again, I didn't mean to sound like a dick, but I couldn't resist)

There's a small external speaker mounted behind that blank space in the dash next to it. Works great. The hardest part was routing the antenna cable through the dash.

In place of the head unit, I just run a 4-channel amp with RCA inputs feeding right from my ipod. Probably the best stereo mod to date.

After ripping the antenna mount off the side (above the taillight) two or three times, I decided that location sucked. Next I tried a shorter one off the roof rack which died in a parking deck. Finally I put the big whip back on the front bumper, and that's worked the best so far.

I marked the roof height on the whip, and it makes a nice height gauge for driving under stuff.

vetboy i did the same CB install you did and i ran the antena wire up and under the dash so its clean and hidin. I can get you pictures if you are intrested in changing it up.
