actually i liked them while they were on there, but i decided to go with the clear corners and such, i think it looks classier like that.

Looks great man. Truck looks real clean. That CD player looks kick ass.

what happend to radios with actual buttons and knobs.
I have been looking for a radio for a while but most have just stupid dials on them.
I miss old school radios with a knob that you turn to turn volume up.
God I hate pushing a button to turn volume up.

yes them covers were bad. almost as bad as when people put them stupid clear lights on the rear lights. I am sure you know the kind.

Most Pioneer HU's have knobs for volume control. My Pioneer CD player is pretty "technologically advanced" and it has a volume knob.

That is why I have a Pioneer HU.....A volume KNOB is a must have feature....

It looks to me like alphabets' stereo has a volume control knob.

My Pioneer's got one, but it's odd. If I turn the volume knob normally, the volume increases or decreases with every "click", but if I've got to turn the stereo up or down quickly, and turn the knob too fast, it only changes volume every few clicks. I'm sure they designed it so that you don't accidentally change the volume more than you intended, but I just find it frustraiting.

yes, that is the power/volume/selection button.
