Hey, my mancave isn't part of the home budget according to wifey. So, I'm a nigga on a budget.

Took an Alpine out of a Jeep wifey traded. It has a remote. Gotta have that.

Mounted it in the wall in a vinyl covered fake dash. Installed a cigarette lighter and an ashtray (flip out job from a '75 Monte Carlo.) Added a couple dome lights in the fake dash and a toggle switch to turn them on/off. Fubar'ed mirror from my Lexus the dealership let me keep after they fixed mine. And fuzzy dice. If you don't rock the dice, you ain't got shit.

Anyways, initially powered it with a battery from my boat. Then I bought a power inverter.

Play some Freebird!
