Default Ford Ranger Install

I was browsing a few sites for some install ideas when I found this one. It is a nice clean install and I thought I would share the link to give any other guys some help or ideas. It's not my truck or install so I can't answer any questions.

Hmm, its a nice attempt, but I wouldn't go so far as calling it a "nice clean install." I'd say it's not completed, or a work in progress.

I see a computer sitting in a mesh storage bin, which doesnt appear to be physically attached to anything, an audio amplifier that looks to be tossed alongside the computer, and some sort of 80's vintage speaker thrown in the back seat. The head unit looks to be relocated to the govebox, without any physical attachement. If I am seeing things correctly, there is also an antenna "mounted" to the same mesh net as the computer..inside the truck?

I wont comment on the fiberglass dashwork, aside from the fact that it was obviously the first time he attempted that sort of work. It usually takes a few attempts to get the hang of it.

Nice ideas, they just don't look finished to me.

Wow, all that bondo work on the dash bezel is pretty bizzare. Can't say I've ever seen anything quite like that. Looks like it obscures the temp controls, but to each their own I guess.

It's "custom" - that's for sure.
