I am needing to replace the Radio in my Beater.

I need something that does not say "Please break in and steal me", so, a radio w/ knobs would be perfect.

I would also like Station Presets.

I do not care if it is tape or cd.

Try Crutchfield.com. Look under automotive. They still list old cars by year and make. Company still has buttons and knobs for about $40. I bought one for a 71 Pontiac and it works fine. Good luck.

I've got one you can have for $10. that's probably what shipping will cost. It turns on, but i have no clue if it reads a cd. Came in my old truck, hooked it up to see if it turns on, and it does. Pretty sure the radio part works fine.

Honestly, I would be interested. However, don't you think it is still "flashy" and says to the ghetto noob "STEAL ME"???

Steve,
Install an old pyramid or kraco powered EQ or even an old amp and use a 1/8 to RCA jack to input your MP3 player to it. Hide the unit somewhere and there's NOTHING to steal. Put a blank pocket in the radio hole to hold your MP3 player!

oh hell no. Seeing it in person, nobody wants to steal it. it's not the prettiest radio ever. the colors are dull, theres light scratches on the face, you know, it's used. It would be a sad sad day if somebody was willing to break into your car to steal it.

Plus, a subwoofer crossover lets you adjust crossover frequencies to maximize your sub's performance. The DEH-P4400 is XM Ready and includes a pop-up rotary volume knob for added tactile control (meaning: you can grab it easier). And for those long road trips, this model can control a CD changer and display CD Text information.

Pop a cd in while you have it powered up and see if the counter moves.

Realistic's at Radio Shack just scream "You can steal me ,but nobody is going to buy me"

Don't forget to offer the book of matches needed to keep it on track.
