Nope! Lazy I am. I could steal some from my other projects but I kinda want to buy better speakers.
Why I asked, you questioned the best speakers for your application, Pioneer has, on their Site, a Component Matching Matrix. You plug in your Head Unit and they list all of the components that work with your head unit, and/or which components work with the head and amp. I used it years back with a Stang setup I did and it work out OK for my tin ears, and I used it to select the system that will be installed in this Ranger.
If you do the speakers over, two things... one would be to use Speakers Pods and two, use Sound Deadening Material in the Door while they are apart. Music will sound SSSSOOOOO much better than you could expect, I was surprised just by using the Pioneer/Explorer Front Speaker and a little bit of FatMat.
Also, for OEM Stuff... the Explorers with the Pioneer Systems, I took a set of Speakers and amp from one, the rear speakers looked the same, the amp never got used and sold, but the front speakers made a big difference in the quality of the sound of the music. They were Co-Axil Speaker, 6" round, and bolt in, but when I used my Digital delivery system I could hear the highs like never before. So get decent speakers for the front.

And copy away, luckily the plastic interior on a mountaineer I stripped was the same color so I cut the plastic from that.
I made metal brackets for the plugs and there is 2 screws in the bottom you can't see in the pic holding it in.
Thanks, I always thought the Cubby Hole would make a great location for Switches but never thought about using it for the USB and Power Plugs.
I was thinking an aluminum plate over the front and holes in it as needed, out of the way and useful.
Also, now that I have your attention, please read the postings in the Mitutoyo Caliper Thread, thanks.
