I put a Starfleet Academy sticker on the hatch. (I have to; I'm a space cadet; I grew up on Star Trek!)

I replaced the front kick-panel speakers with ones that don't make Darth Vader noises when I push in and release the cones. Removing that panel is actually easier than it looks.

I replaced the back speakers too, but I don't like the results so I'm going to do it differently. The back tweets are blown so I will be looking for replacements.

Addendum...

I redid the way I mounted the back woofies. Mister Dremel on the original tubey thing made room for the speaker's mounting tabs, and a lot of hot-melt glue fastened them in place and sealed them up (as much as they can be on that plastic thing).

The 4" full-rage speakers I put in make very little high-frequency sound and the original tweeters had no filter capacitors, so I'm sure there's a crossover in the built-in wiring harness. That would explain that. So I do need to put some new tweeters in fr the back.
