for 1 i'm going to backlight the sterio with LEDs and that will require some redesign of the light panels. another is I found a floating voltage on the circuit board for the faceplate. I think i can make a pretty cool anti theft device out of that, 2 resistors and an op-amp. if i can make it work, i should be able to make the stock "antitheft" device work with about $2 in parts from radio shack and write a DIY on it.
