Almost all the pics I've seen in the thread has them boldly displayed in plain view for all to see.
This would not have been classified as "clean" back in the day...

Interrestingly enough, back in the day (at least for me), 'clean' stereo meant minimal sound distortion by placing speakers carefully and strategically to properly recreate the sounds that you were trying to recreate. This meant several small tweaters, some larger mid-range speakers and some larger bass (not really a modern subwoofer) speakers in the back. A good amplifier would allow the adjustment of the bass and treble to each channel to get a good 'clean' sound. (Obviously you needed a good antenna too).
Word definitions are very strange.
Nevertheless, I will say that in a lot of those pictures, the installations were tidy-looking.
I will say that I have had too many cars with stolen radios to want to spend money on another stereo system (although I might have to put one in the '91 as it's factory radio has died).
