Do you have an old car with a stereo that’s still in good condition? IKEA hacker Stefano shows us how to put that stereo into a cabinet and keep it alive.
It looks like Stefano’s using a BESTÅ shelf unit as the case, so it won’t be a boombox in the most traditional sense — that is, you won’t be able to carry it on your shoulder all ’90s style — but you could at least save some money on a new stereo. You just need to gut the stereo unit, speakers and a few other components from your car to put it all together.
It even has a USB and iPod hookup for your tunes, although it might be even cooler to make it AirPlay-compatible with a Raspberry Pi. Hit the link to see more.
