This is just one easy way to use Windows, Linux, and iOS together, to
quickly and easily watch a YouTube DIY at a location that has no Internet.

1. On Windows, I downloaded the desired YouTube DIY:

2. It's easy to transfer files into VLC over USB on dual-boot Linux:

That's it. Now the video was on iOS playable where there is no Internet.

A. I bought the tools at Harbor Freight & the speakers at Fryes:

B. I followed the YouTube DIY in VLC, step by step:

C. I removed the decrepit Toyota OEM 20W $300 Panasonic speakers:

D. I had to drill holes to fit the 450W Blaupunkt 3-way speakers:

E. Everything else but the holes fit perfectly back into place:

The only catch is that it's amazing that something as common as a 6x9" oval
speaker requires holes to be drilled in the rear deck given that these
things should simply be standard.


Why not use a Windows based tablet instead of ****ing about converting it to Apple's ****ed up language?

I'd just watch the video on a PC in my house, then go out and work on the
car and if necessary come back and watch again. It's putting in a speaker,
not rebuilding the engine. If I wanted to do it right at the car, I'd
use my smartphone on the cell network.
