[s-cars] CD Changer install

[Andrew B]

Hey Ron,
Thanks for the tip.  By "rubber floor", do you mean the plastic/mesh
liner that holds up the phone/antenna box?  I took that off but was
unable to get the mounts to line up right.  I didn't realize there
were separate brackets, so maybe I didn't try hard enough.  Any photos
or further tips would be greatly appreciated.  I'll give it another
shot and see if I can get something to line up.

-Andrew
