Subject:CD/MP3 Player suggestions
From:Gary
Date:Wed, 1 Jan 2003 20:26:54 -0500

I want to put an in-dash CD/MP3 player in my 85 Westy "Bullit" (....not a
wimpy name, eh?). I have heard there are size restrictions on the
units....some won't fit because they are too big. Any suggestions on what
units would work best in this situation and are they difficult to install?
I went over to the stereo shop and the "kid" there said "man, that car is
almost older than me." He had no suggestions without tearing it apart and
looking for himself. Well, I wasn't sure if he could put it back together
so I decided to do it myself. I haven't started yet in hopes somebody out
there has faced this problem and can give me a suggestion or two. I like
bells and whistles on my stuff but if a basic unit would work best....I
guess I will settle for that (maybe there isn't a MP3 basic unit). Where is
a good mail order or internet shop that I might be able to get the player
at a discount?.....maybe just wishful thinking.

Thanks, Gary
