**The Audio Thread**
It's worth a shot, but let's see if we can start a huge thread about anything audio related instead of post whoring in other threads and getting it off topic. So post anything maxima audio related, or hell anything car audio related in this sucker. Maybe Don can sticky this later... 
I'll start...
So, been toying with the idea of dremeling out the stock "grill" on the tweeter housing. The holes on there doesn't seem like it allows much sound to go through. Anyone ever replaced the plastic grill with a cloth one? In any case, can't wait til the SLC's get here

I will post a little something...
Finally got rid of my VCR in the Max this weekend
. I've had it in there for many years. Now I have a little DVD player in my glove box 
. It is alot easier to change out movies now. The VCR was in the trunk, pretty big too.
