how many of you winger owners have radios in your boats?

**MR.Magoo** · 12-25-2011, 11:50 AM

if you can could you post pics of where your stereos are in your boats? i was given a new kenwood marine head unit for my boat today and am wondering where the heck to mount it and speakers.

I've got a place for one with the flip down cover for it, just no radio. It's infront of the pass. seat where the oh shiat handle would go. Is that one a double DIN? looks pretty big. Might make a small box and glass it in under the dash to keep it out of the way and not hack up the whole dashboard.

i'm not sure i didnt even pull it out of the box

**cordog009** · 12-25-2011, 03:30 PM

Randall my first boat had some 6x9's in some small boxes infront of the front seats on the sides. Whoever made the boxes blended them in with the shape of the boat really well, and they were out of sight and out of the weather too.

honestly i really didnt want to put a radio in that boat, however seeing how my gf bought the radio, and she bought the boat for me, i figuire i shoulod install it, nothing too crazy just a couple 6x9's, i want clarity, no maxx volume, and i really don't plan to

I've got one I might throw in mine, now that I finally added an alternator. IF the MOFO even gets to see much water again this summer

i have a nice system in ours and enjoy it. yes randall i think it would be advised if you like your current conditions to install the gift in the gift!!!!!!!! mines installed in a box attached to the bulkhead under the dash !

i have always had tunes in every boat.

im lost without them.

its my dash and thats where i usually like to put them.

that way you can get to it easy when in the water and want to change station or CD.

you can always fill the spot in the dash if you take it out.

we mounted Dads up under the dash and it sucks ass to get to.

Just my .02 worth

Mine had one in it when I got it I added new speakers and it wasn't very loud so I put a small amp in it. I have two of the speakers in boxes with long enough wire that I can set them on the side of the boat so my buddy tint can hear it too.

**Led** · 01-04-2012, 11:13 AM

highly likely u will not be able to hear the tunes while running, but make sure that you are not too far under the deck, perfect spot IMO would be right beside the front buckets, facing inside, but then again more exposed to the elements.

**hotbo** · 01-04-2012, 11:21 AM

yeah if you put them under the deck in say the kick board area the sound sucks.

i am going to build or have build boxes for mine to fit in areas around and the front seats and Rear.

haven't looked at it much but that is my Plan.

the new turd tanker has 10 speakers and a sub in it
