I always find it hilarious that half the people who will tell you not to do it have modified their frame, or changed out the gauges, or tinted windows, or put on some '80's rims with BF Radial T/A's, or done a motor transplant, or converted to HEI, or switched carbs, or any number of things that make the truck "Not Original".
The only reason not to cut is if your truck is in mint condition, or restored back to 100% factory condition just as when it rolled off the assembly line. If it's a daily driver, I can't think of a reason NOT to have a cd player in it! Hmm...10 watts vs 200, AM vs AM/FM/CD/MP3/Satellite radio, 16 bit digital quality vs...ummm...none?
My truck isn't on the road yet, but as soon as it is roadworthy you can bet I will cut the dash in a heartbeat!

You've swayed me, as I dont have a care to restore it but I just want it to look nice and i think that a upgrade in the audio area would be a good change. Now what would be the best method to cut and then mount the stereo.
Does anybody have any pics of a stereo mounted on a cut dash.
