[Spridgets] Ipod stereo for bugsy

I went to the audio store at lunch and got a JVC 200W system with a direct 
plug for the pod.  The headphone answer is clearly the best for the quality 
of sound in a bugeye, but its definitely illegal.  I'm toying with the idea 
of doing "The Drive" with the fiberglass hardtop in place.  Though a bit 
whussy compared to genuine, masochistic Sprite driving, the reduced wear and 
tear on the driver might be worth it as well as the gas mileage for such a 
long trip.  The side benefit would be actually hearing the stereo.
