Replacing 95 EB radio suggestions - no NAVigation

[Steve_Walsh]

Hi all,


I have a 95 EB with 101,000 miles on it. I'm putting about 8K a year on it and since it has never given me a problem I'm hoping to keep it for some time.

I'm not looking to get a top level radio/CD/iPod player, but rather just one that will do all three at a decent price. Any suggstions appreciated as well as who to go to for installation as this is beyond my ability.

Thanks in advance,
Steve Walsh

p.s. I'm near a Best Buy and in matthews NC if that helps at all.

DO NOT GET ANYTHING INSTALLED AT BEST BUY!!!!!!!
ok now that is out of the way, how much are you looking to spend? i would suggest looking at alpine's line up http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/series-c.php?category=AV_HU
they have something in almost every price range. i would go to a shop that only does car audio to get it installed. thats all they do, so its what they do best.

by the way, you might want to try it yourself. i know you said it is beyond your ability, but it is a lot easier than you think. by just looking at a picture of a 95 dash, you probably just have to pry off the radio bezel and there are probably screws behind there holding the radio in. get a harness and a dash kit and its very easy. just a thought to save you like $50-$75.

Thank you very much. I should be passing a place or two this week and will stroll in with some general question after looking at the Alpine site.
