Car Stereo Options?, And opinions Options

[hitbyastick]

I'm in the process of assembling the interior of my car. Now I have a tough choice to make. What kind of radio do I want. The old blaupunkts and becker knob radios might look allright, but they appear to be really pricey, and the sound can't be that great. The modern radios all have way too much blue LED lighting and things going on with the buttons or the screen. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes somethings reasonably simple looking? Or maybe you can tell me what radios you guys have. Thanks much,
Christoph

i'm planning to fill the dash with an old blecker and then hide a pair of T amps to play my i pod. google t amps and there are multiple sites on the high quality sound out of these dirt cheap amps $35 each and how to modify them.

Each 914 is unique, but follow this formula,

How many owners has the car had ?
Multiply that figure by at least three (I find by five works best)
Now add to that number the mean average sum
of the answers to Your original question;
(how many ground points do we have?...).
The resulting total should be pretty close. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
