Remote Spectra in 99 Silverado Questions

Post by dbfd588 »

Im planning on putting a a7 remote head on the over head console on my 99-02 style silverado. Just wandering if anyone has done this. There is a blank dead spot that I thought I mite cut out. But I may just mount it below that blank spot. Kinda up over the RVM. Anyone else put a Remote Spectra in a Silverado before in this location or other location?

The blank comes out, you will need to remove the console the take it out and mount the head, did it several years back with a MCS2K III head, looked good, a Spectra head would have fit as well too.

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
