Thinking about a radio upgrade?
I want to upgrade my stereo system but I want to keep it as stock looking as possible. I've seen lots of those stock looking ones but with modern technology and I really like them? What would you recommend? Also I want to upgrade the dash speaker what is the correct size of speaker (speakers?) Trying to stay away from LMC cause they're not the cheapest option. Lets see what you got.

Ordered this one from Custom Audio Sound, Happy with it.(has CD control, USB, RCA outputs and Aux inputs for iPod, MP3, DVD, Satellite.) Also installed the dual voice coil speaker for in the dash in place of the stock one.(took a little mod work to get the speaker to fit.) Have the multi disc CD player that goes with the radio but not installed yet.

I used a Crutchfield Retrosound, easy install and looks great.

I am of an age now that most of life's lessons were learned the hard way;
Life is hard, but it’s harder when you’re stupid.
Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from any direction.
Never ask how stupid someone is 'cause they'll turn around and show you.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
If you had the choice “Looks or Brains” take the Brains, Looks will get you thru the first half, but Brains will last a lifetime.
