I have a '96 Dodge Neon 4-DR sedan. It came with absolutely no sound system: no speakers, no antenna, no nothing. I would like to add all of this. Are there any resources that I could use for this, online or elsewhere? Can anyone on this board help me out?

Hi. I am looking at putting in an aftermarket system, perhaps this one. (http://www.crutchfield.com/S-cjUZOa3ZFtx/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?s=0&c=3&g=300&I=158CDXF500&o=p&a=1&cc=01&avf=Y&search=) My Neon has no antenna, and no wiring to the doors, but it looks like the rear speakers are wired because I can see wires sticking out on the roof of the trunk (click here for pic (http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/4134c51fzcad1764c/1aee/__sr_/bbe1.jpg?phjq8NBBLANJARVN)). And here (http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/4134c51fzcad1764c/1aee/__sr_/dba9.jpg?phjq8NBBkLHWZd4b) is a pic of the wiring already in the console where the head unit would go.

How much more wiring do I need to do?
Is it very hard for me (a beginner) to bring wire to the door speakers?
Is it hard to install the antenna?
And what wiring do I already have in place in the pictures?

I really appreciate you helping me out. Thanks.

Okay, you need a headunit, and 4 speakers. Look at crutchfield.com and put in what type of car you have and it'll let you know what sizes to look for.
