I've put 3-4k on it so far with no major issues so far, hopefully it holds up until X-mas or Spring Break, where it will recieve a death sentence.

So if 1+1=2, then what does r=1+-i equivalate to?

The answer is r=y=c1e^x cosx + c2e^e sinx

The initial problem was (y double-prime)-(2y prime)+(2y)=0

just get matlab, use dsolve and plug in the values. dsolve [ 1 2 2 = 0];
or use laplace to solve it algbraically, and then use inverse laplace to get back to the time domain. WOOOPDEEE FUCKING DODA.

First of all it isn't calc, and where am I constantly posting equations? This is one. Feel free to find another.

When the majority of your posts are translated into a mathematical equation, here are the results:

x = n(y + z) where n,x,y,z are defined as follows:

n = positive interger from 1 to 10
x = Aaron
y = wannabe
z = tool

so, Aaron = n(wannabe + tool)

The value "n" varies from post to post. When n is between 1 and 5, you're being the typical wannabe tool. When it is between 6 and 10 you've really shown what a total retard you can be.

So, it is true that you are always posting equations.

Any questions?

I was able to find these, Yellowstone has them on his car.

I like the look, and I could easily adapt them for Double-Din (I would order them without a radio slot cut)

Are there any more you guys know of?

So is it your junior year that they teach you how to spell "like"? Don't try to play it off as a typo, you spell it that way every damn time!

Anyhow, to be on topic. It's not the faceplate that supports the headunit, so this is probably the best bet because it should be easily modifiable. The hacking and cutting you're going to have to do is to the radio and HVAC control support behind the faceplate. the faceplate modifications should be easy for any jackass with a Dremel. You mess up the supports behind and welcome to Rattle-town, population You.

I know I misspell like every time...lol...It's becuz I type so fast on the internet that with the word like, my left hand sits idle while my right hand has to click away the lik, and so it just sits, and I end up clicking the e too fast. There are a few other words I do it to as well.

That is pretty much what I'm planning to do. Hopefully I won't have to mess with any of the brackets besides the ones for the stereo.

or you can use 1/4" acrylic and a dremel - or 1/4" basswood and an exacto knife..

thats how I made the new plate for my replacement rally guages (3 rounds in the pod)

In the future I'm going to make my own gauge cluster, this si just for now. But once I set off on upgrading the interior to my tastes, I'll be using the factory dash, but with some custom gauge panels. Not sure yet on style or anything, it's a ways off.

Though I'll probably still use aluminum plate for that, I like the look.

Well I got them in, and of course they were not properly cut like I wanted them. So I emailed him, and he had the correct ones sent out to me. Luckily, he included the rest of the kit too. I decided to use them, and in doing so, have an extra kit full and complete that I can sell.

They are really well crafted. They are thin, flexible, accurately cut, and pretty easy to install. And they are easy to cut with a razor blade. I really like the look, and it made my stereo install look even cleaner.

Looks like they cover up the gaps on the sides of the radio. Cool.
What's the crease doing on the right side though?

Yah they do cover those gaps. It is cool.

The crease is because of a bad install, and I have a couple, but that is by far the worst. It happens, and they aren't too hard to get out thankfully.
