    1st gen vs. 2nd gen intake manifold

    One piece driveshaft

    Do it yourself. Make sure it has a near empty fuel tank. Its about as easy as changing your oil. Seriously no big deal.

    Looping when cold, in drive, foot on the brake, at idle

    Double Din Changer

    I tried a Mach 460 unit out of a Mustang and it definitely will NOT work. I'm not sure about any others. The connectors on the Mach 460 were different, and they amp the tweeters and woofers seperately.
