Amateur Installation of Vehicle Audio Equipment
Some installation of vehicle audio equipment is sometimes done with spare parts, and is even done outside of vehicular applications as well. Some homemade boomboxes have used car audio head units as a control panel and central circuit for portable enclosure. Some bicycles have even had car stereos mounted onto them using spare parts as mounting brackets.
Other instances of vehicle audio can simply just involve propping a handheld transistor radio on top the dashboard with no mounting brackets whatsoever since some vehicles like older work trucks are less of a concern for the drivers and owners of them who only have casual needs for radio or audio use. Other instances involve passengers using headphones with portable audio equipment, though it doesn't give them the same experience as making it so others can hear it too, not to mention that its illegal for operators of vehicles to use headphones.

Famous quotes containing the words amateur, vehicle and/or equipment:
“I have been reporting club meetings for four years and I am tired of hearing reviews of the books I was brought up on. I am tired of amateur performances at occasions announced to be for purposes either of enjoyment or improvement. I am tired of suffering under the pretense of acquiring culture. I am tired of hearing the word “culture” used so wantonly. I am tired of essays that let no guilty author escape quotation.”
—Josephine Woodward, U.S. author. As quoted in Everyone Was Brave, ch. 3, by William L. O’Neill (1969)
“Its idea of “production value” is spending a million dollars dressing up a story that any good writer would throw away. Its vision of the rewarding movie is a vehicle for some glamour-puss with two expressions and eighteen changes of costume, or for some male idol of the muddled millions with a permanent hangover, six worn-out acting tricks, the build of a lifeguard, and the mentality of a chicken-strangler.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.”
—Betty Rollin (b. 1936)
