Garage Mod #3: bumpin tunes

Just thought I'd post a follow-up to this thread I posted long ago:
http://mitsustyle.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11419

I had some speakers that I got from a roommate at the place I lived before I bought my current house. They've sat doing nothing but hold a cheapo radio and a wrench from time to time. My neighbor just got a fancy new onkyo hdmi receiver and a light bulb went on in my head when I was looking at his new one:

me: 'what was wrong with your old one?'
him: 'the display doesn't work...really annoying when flipping radio stations or trying to do anything besides turn it on/off'
me: 'oh yea? how much you want for it'
him: 'if you carry it, you can have it!'

zing! Behold, new garage stereo!




I don't want pesky thieves having an extra reason to come in, so I stuck it in a cabinet on a wall, and tucked all the wires away all nice:


So, I just keep the doors shut and open one to flip it on/off whenever I want to listen to 93x Came with a remote that goes on the tool box, which has a seek function, so as long as I don't get a hankering to listen to cds, I'm in good shape
