Lately, I’ve been working on the audio system. I removed the spare wheel and factory CD changer to make room for amplifiers and a DSP.
Customizing an A-pillar for a 3″ midrange speaker mount and optimal performance tailored to my seating position. Is this conversation helpful so far?

Modernized the car a little with a new head unit. Also vinyl wrapped the shifter trim. These radios can be found on Amazon.

Swapped out the stock steering wheel controls for 06+ maxima ones. Because of how it’s wired I lose the trip button but gain a button for the radio. For the buttons to illuminate I’ll have to get a clock spring out of a maxima and run the wires for the illumination pins.

I just installed the Grom VLine VL2 Android Auto and Apple CarPlay add-on. I didn’t want to cut holes in my glove box for wires. I really disliked the idea of having all those wires or the VLine in my glove box, so I looked around and found the perfect place for it. There is just the right space at the bottom of the glove box enclosure for the wires and VLine to fit comfortably. I used Velcro to attach it there.
Down there, the VLine doesn’t move, so there’s no need for extra wire to allow for movement every time the glove box is opened, and I don’t have to worry about the VLine getting bounced around. I can’t tell anything has been done to my system. If I need to access the box to reset the system, as some have had to, I can just reach under there and unplug the cable, or I can pull the box down to get to the wiring or the SD card. I’ll post a couple of photos below to show how it looks—or doesn’t.
