The double DIN sized unit has a non-functional tape deck. I'd like to put in an XM capable head unit with a single disc CD and use the other half of the existing opening for a storage space to rest...

I got it open. I broke the back panel; as I suspected that one tiny piece was keeping it attached. I think I can probably repair it by putting something on the back and using two part epoxy. The...

I never thought you were and I really appreciate everyone's suggestions. I think I am going to break the part that around the latch bolt since that is the only thing holding it on now. Thanks to the...

I tried that one yesterday. The guys at the Toyota dealership told me I am probably going to have to break the plastic plate with the 7 screws to gain access to the lock mechanism.

I'm taking it to my mechanic tomorrow. I can still back out of this deal if he says it has major problems. I don't think it will but all I need right now is to get the back open to put the top back...

Nice try but "nope." The plastic piece that is attached to the back wall has a hole in the lip through which the latch part of the hatch passes. Even after I removed the 7 screws I couldn't move...

A good friend had a new '86.5 when I was in HS (that makes me 36 for the math impaired) and I have wanted a Supra ever since. Today I put a deposit to give me first option on a '91 NA automatic for...

I was informed that the guy sold it a couple days ago so it doesn't matter anyway. Thanks for the reply, though. That is good to know no matter what kind of car one is considering.
