where you put aftermarket radio?
Hello. i am looking at a 69 chevelle which actually has the original AM radio in the dash. given i want to keep the original look to the car, where do you folks suggest a person could put a aftermarket AMFM /I POD radio? i don't want to mount under dash as i would want to keep that area clean. the AM radio works per seller. the car is a bucket seat/console Malibu. thanks for suggestions.

You can get a modern radio, no CD player, that will fit in the opening of the original radio. Check with the suppliers. NPD, Ground Up, etc.
|
I mounted mine under the dash in a boat type radio enclosure .
|
what about the console or inside glove compartment? I would want to keep the original AM radio in the dash.
|
There are vendors out there that can update the internals without changing the appearance. Going that route with the factory am/fm radio in my 72'.
|
They sell a radio that looks original, but is updated. You just keep the original and can always put it back in down the road.
|
I got my original AM. On the shelf with my extra clutch pedals. Thing weighs 50 lbs it seems like.
My first chevelle had the oddball AM stereo deal in it. |
what about putting a new radio/ipod jack in glove compartment with a remote? does anyone do that? that way I can keep the original radio in the dash.
|
Alot of people put it in the glove box with a remote. I almost did that.
|
oh ok, that's what I may do
