Re: 71 Chevy C10 Radio Advice

I saw a new factory style replacement on ebay for like $160. it has all the ipod interfaces and stuff. Whatever you do, don't buy the $40 2 knob from autozone!!! I bought one, and the shafts lined up, but when I went to slide it into the dash, the center part was about 1/8" too wide fore the opening in the dash. In order for it to fit, I would have had to trim the dash (which defeats the whole purpose). i made a little bracket and have anothe cheap radio hanging under my heater controls. It cost like 45 bucks new, has ipod, usb, memory card, and sounds great hooked to my lmc kick panel speakers and my low profile pyle sub/amp combo. i guess I'll spring for one of those repro units later, but now it just ain't top of the list material.
