A Ford stereo in a Metro? Won't this make the Metro more likely to get stolen? |

Isn't it? His welding is superb. I don't think I've ever seen nicer welds. Now if only I had measured a few more things, so we could get it right the first time... But, for a first go-round, it's great - and just wait until version 2.0!

Got the harness wired up and tested it/the stereo just now. It works. ![]() So I don't have to return it to PnP!

Suzuki Esteem, Suzuki Grand Vitara, Chevrolet Tracker, Possibly Suzuki Vitara... If you don't ever see those in junkyards, send me a PM, and we can discuss details about me getting you one... ![]() P.S. They are a rare option in Esteems, but very common in the Grand Vitaras and Trackers... |

The Infamous Ford Stereo is going to its new forever home soon. In the weirdest of coincidences, there is a lady, who I do not know, on a local "garage sale" Facebook group. She was looking for cassettes, because her new vehicle doesn't have a CD player. So I messaged her. What kind of vehicle is it, I inquire. Why, it's a 2000 Chevrolet Tracker. !!!! I happen to have a stereo PRE-WIRED, that will play BOTH CDs AND cassettes. And now we're making a plan for me to pitch a stereo into her Tracker. I'm charging her a handy fee of absolutely nothing; but if she tries to insist that she owes me something, I might take a fiver. ![]() Mostly I just need to thin down my stereo collection! |

![]() Does it count as theft if your wife told me I could?

This would TOTALLY happen at my house, only it wouldn't stop with a single radio surround. ![]() I hope the install goes OK. I want to say after '98 some of the dash stuff started to change in the trackers....

![]() All the pics I am seeing, show the same exact side-mounting plate system, that I'm familiar with. 4 screws, little nubs in the middle, etc etc. Same thing as 95-01 Metros, Swifts, etc, as well as Suzuki Esteems, so on, so forth. |
