    Good enough?

    Okay, this could be a dopey question.. not sure. I've got my replacement Crossmember to weld on and was wondering about its finish.

    Rear door speakers

    Hello everyone.. was wondering if anybody out there knows where the amp for the rear door speakers lives. All the other speakers are working fine, but I have'nt heard a peep out of the rear door speakers since I've had the brute!
