Hey Fellas,
I bought a new-old boat this spring, I love it and I got it for a steal!
I've spent a lot of money upgrading all the rod holders and electronics and now I need to install the stereo. I love having some tunes on the water and I bought a Fusion Ipod stereo system and it has 2 - 6" speakers. The boat is a 1995 and sure functional and I love the layout, but that layout is all business and leaves virtually no room for mounting speakers or stereo other than the stereo in the dash and one of the speakers in the console below the horn (see pics) and the other under console pointing towards rear casting deck.
I'm not concerned cutting into the glass and about messing it up for resale (should I be?) as I'll keep the boat for awhile and adding a stereo if aesthetically installed shouldn't hurt.
Thank you in advance for your input as well as pointers, I plan on taping the area off, using a fine jigsaw blade at slower speed and I have good templates.

Thanks,

MS
