What have you done to your car that no one really notices? I installed a compass rearview mirror and a power trunk popper. What else have you done?

Oil slick dump valve, smoke screen device, tire shredder center caps, passenger side ejector seat, rocket boosters, an 8 track player and one Johnny Horton tape.
When I get her up to 105 mph and hit the play button on Johnny Horton all that chit goes live, it's crazy awesome!!

LOL.........Sounds pretty cutting edge Mr. Bond.
Nothing like taking out the bad guys while listening to "Sink the Bismark"

That is some cool stuff dare, especially the power trunk popper, that would come in very handy at car shows.

Seriously I think a power antenna would be pretty sweet.

The Keisler 5-spd is my stealth mod. Looks pure stock at first glance. Sharp eyes notice that the shifter is not quite where the factory put it and that the pistol grip has a 5-spd pattern on top.

Sent the factory AM radio to a guy in FL who converted it to 180 watt AM/FM with MP3 jacks. Looks 100% original in the dash. Manipulate the knobs to switch from AM to FM, and the MP3 cord resides in the glovebox.
Will be crinkle painting my Poly 318 valve covers with 'POLY HEAD 318' decals that mimic the '426 Ramcharger' deals on the hemi.

Tayman Electrical in Sarasota FL. I shipped him my radio and had it back in less time than I expected...all cleaned up looking better than the condition I mailed it out. Spoke with Gary on the phone prior to shipping. He was very curtious. When I thought I had a problem he helped me troubleshoot it over the phone. Turned out to be my repop antenna connection.
What I like:
*He wires in the original power/light connector!
*I don't have an 'extra' radio taking up the glove box or under seat space. *No 2nd set of wires ran, etc.
*It can run a 1, 2, 3, or 4 speaker system. I chose to run a 4x10 Kicker in the original dash spot and two 6x9 Pioneers in the factory holes in the package tray.
The MP3 hookup consists of a typical red and a white audio jack in the side of the radio body...And I did have to 'tweek' my dash support rod to clear the wires. If the ports were even a 1/2 in further forward on the side, I would have been fine. I would ask him to place them a little further forward than he normally does to eliminate this possible obstruction.
I was able to pick up a 3' pigtail at Lowes (crazy, I know!) for a couple bucks. They also had a 6' if someone wanted more wire. I'm sure the same thing can be found at Best Buy or Radio Shack. The pig tail has the male white and red connectors at one end and the 3.5mm universal tip on the other. It works with an Ipod, cell phone, etc. I haven't tried to see if it would work as a 'hands free' with the phone. hmm. I will have to give that a shot.
