Hahahaha L.O.L walkmen dont take wrong way but i havent seen 1 or them for 10yr and im only 30 hahaha its 2008 ... on a serious note you can mount stereo any were, Im luky a mate of mine has Trophs for in stalls and he wired mine, if any 1 hasent seen mine, go to my photos and have a look, and this didnt cost a great deal, the MDF and the and the amps were the most but you have to have good amps, i think mine are about $1000 ea (got 2) new but they are ALPINE, Stereo have come down heaps, subs, deck and speakers are under $700 and if you could only here it 130db plus... What did ya say... L.O.L..

I used to have a Walkman set up in my car. I started out with an 1/8" stereo to RCA adapter into an amp as mentioned before.
To solve the battery issue, I made a simple voltage regulator to replace the batteries. I used a CB mic cord (5 leads) to connect the walkman. 3 leads for the sound and 2 for power. I installed an 1/8" jack at the end and pulled the 2 extra wire out the top and down the side of the radio into the battery cover. The other end ran under the seat to the voltage regulator and amp connections.
Worked great. The radio reception sucks though. I'm sure there is a way to plug in an mp3 player in a similar fashion.
Or, you could try one of these...

I think its a bit expensive.

well i was gonna put my cover plate over it, but when i finally got it from him, it also was butched, 2 holes for guages.. but the headunit is in and im happy

mine was already buggered but a 2mm shave wont go astray all around... still have the cover plate and fits with almost no visable gaps

Like the saying goes - dont be dumb my sillly son take your time and drink some wine.

It just takes a little sprinkle of care and a minor dash of patience youll get it.

my dash is clean and unmelested, cept for the cracked dash pad, even got the datsun blanking plate . so im too scared to chop mine.. i might change the colours, but no chopy chop!!!

my first idea was too remove the face from a din sized Scan Disc, MP3/WMA player and remote mounting the face in the ash tray (so you push the top and it folds out) but its too long to fit there.. and was gunna hide the rest of it where the radio normaly sits.


but as sead before just use a mp3/ipod and run it through a small two chanel amp (used a ear phone jac too dual rca lead), works well, i did it in my dunnydore for awhile.. but it when through batterys like no tomorrow... so you need to suply power some how!!??

Mine is just in dash and run a stacker in between me seats on the back wall with a remote velcro'd to me steering wheel, change CD's with a press of the button.

If any one has a wild stereo in there Dato, i would luv to see.... luv ya tunes...

get a steza with a remote and put the steza in the glove box

To jake. Why not cut a section out of that front seat rail and box it up for your stereo if its reinforced and strengthened it shouldn't be an issue. There pretty flimsy any way.
Just a thought

If it was already butchered then go ahead but if anyone is thinking of putting a modern stereo into the pristine dash of a "vintage" car which is what our Datsuns really are , forget it, your just f#cking it up.
