Thanks! It's actually metal, not plastic, but I bought it at Sound On Wheels in Rock Hill, South Carolina.

I do have 3 blacklights installed though, 2 under front dash<pass, and driver> and one longer one in the top of my back window where the window meets the headliner...
um...it was a process...take the whole dash out, take out every screw you see, get colored cellophane...put a layer or two on the back of the dash, put everything back together...now its blue

E-GAINER

Thanks. The last wheels were called KMC Nemesis. My wife hated them. She called them cucumbers.

My first post here. This is by far the best Lexus forum I've found. I come from the audio forums, stereos are my area of expertise. I just got a '92 ES300 and am gonna start on the stereo install soon, I'm hoping you guys can give me some specialized help for the car when I need it.

Here's the rundown on equipment and install plans.
Alpine CDA-7840 HU
Rockford Symmetry EPX2 with E28 EQ card with the display mounted in the visor
Memphis amps, 2 ST-300's for the front stage and 1 ST-1000D for the sub
Digital Designs DDW6.5 mids in ported kickpanel pods
Image Dynamics CD1Pro Mini-horns under the dash
Image Dynamics IDMAX 12" sub in a 1.3 cubic foot box built into the dash (I'll be rebuilding the dash w/ fiberglass to accomodate the sub box and audio equipment)

The goal here is to build a car that can be competitive in IASCA and USAC sound quality, but mostly an enjoyable daily driver that can sound great and get loud too.

If any of you want help or advice with your sound system, I'm glad to help where I can or go over to the forums at www.sounddomain.com or www.termpro.com These are the two I spend the most time at, there are others such as www.elitecaraudio.com or www.carsound.com Alot of audio geniouses at these places.

Hi Kyle,

Tell us all the details about your 92 ES. Please get all the mechanical problems fixed before all the audio stuff, you probably by now have leaking valve covers, leaking valve stem seals, leaking PS pump and possibly the PS rack as well, Motor mounts as well the top one and the front one. Please tell us all the stuff
