RE: hidden security system & hidden stereo

Any installation of the " hidden security or other than original stereo systems should be installed by a professional shop and would not keep the original theme of either the 57 or the 59 off production
This of course will be your choice, depending on the originality of the cars you purchased and any show / shines you will be attending.

RE: hidden security system & hidden stereo
I have hidden security an stereo systems in my Thunderbirds.
I did it myself.
For an idea how the stereo is done see: http://www.squarebirds.org/cgi-bin/d...rum=DCForumID1
I can post more pictures of that if you are interested.
For the security system, it is very easy for these cars. There is just one wire that goes to the starter from the ignition. Put a hidden switch in between, and if a thief tries to start the car he will just think the battery is dead.
If you do it yourself, you will do a neater and better job than a professiona, and only you will know where the the hidden switch is. My modifications not visible. The car looks stock.

Alexander, I don't quite know how to tell you this but having a guy hiding in the trunk of a TBird dressed up as Count Dracula does not constitute a "hidden security system".... sorry!
