Re: Installing a RetroSound car radio in my 56 Clipper

I installed a modern radio inside the glove box on my car. This way I can close the glove box and the radio is not visible. A remote attached to the steering wheel helps a lot, since reaching over to the passenger side of the car is kind of dangerous while driving.

The Becker Mexico is a sweet radio and nav systemhttp://www.mybecker.com/deDE/CAR+INFOTAINMENT-Mexico+7948-Ueberblick.html

but is DIN format, and would not fit in the dash. As far as speakers, I have 5.25 inch rounds in the kick panels and 6x9 oval speakers in the back window shelf. The packards have plenty of room for running wires and installing radios and equipment.
