Snitty,

I am sorry to hear that... We did have some interphase issues with our older lineups, but I think we have corrected that. Was that your problem? Difficulty to operate it as you want it?

[quote=Sparky-Watts;169186]I've got one of those "mystery objects" sliding back and forth behind my dash, too. I think mine is a pencil.

When I was wiring up my KC Daylighters, I found 16 parking tickets and a pen in mine! I take it the previous owner was not big on paying the park meters!

Thanks, but the cup holders will only hold short and thick coffee mugs; if you use it for soft drinks, or any other "normal" sized drinks, believe me, you'll be WEARING your drink!

In my case, my niece lives in Miami, and she likes to go ride with me and my wife in my Jeep (after all, what's not to like? good music, the wind in your hair, and the sun shining down on you... Ahhhh... Life does not get any better! Unless there's a little mud, that is!)

Center ones are a little better protected. As I said, sound wise, the mod pods were the best option I found; but they are vulnerable to water, mud, feet and thieves.

If you go with the center pods, you might want to consider TWDJ's idea of inverting the sides, so you get stereo sound for each passanger independently....
