"dealer added"?
I was reviewing the thread on Dennis's beautiful Formula, and one comment on the first page got me thinking about something I have considered...
I have considered retaining a rear seat speaker in my car. My car didn't leave the factory with one, which means it would have had a plain vinyl covered rear package tray, and a single speaker in the dash. (iirc the 1970-1971 dual speaker cars recieved the perforated rear package tray.) Since I wasn't fortunate enough to be around when all the really good cars were new, could someone chime in on the following two questions? Q1: If a customer came in with a (oh lets say) 70 Firebird with an AM-mono radio, and wanted to get any sort of "stereo" system put in, would the rear package tray been changed out, or would the regular tray be retained, and just a speaker hole been cut, and speaker cover been added? (I have previously understood that a 'dealer added' rear speaker would have entailed retaining the original rear package tray.) Q2: At large shows, are points deducted for a "dealer added" rear speaker?
