I cut out the center section of the console to accept a modern radio. I have
a spare center console if I chose to reinstall the original ( don't think I
ever will ).
I think used center consoles can be had for $ 50.00 and eliminates trying to
relocate the radio.
I am using Pioneer enclosed 2 way 5" TS-TRX40 speakers. They have a plastic
casing which takes up less room then mounting speakers in a box. Plus I can
hear them with the top down. I had them on the rear shelf, but I think I
will be putting them behind the seats this time.

Someone thought it was such a great set up they went Christmas shopping in
my car; last week.
I have since replaced it all and will be removing the face plate from now
on.
The speakers are a bit hard to find.
