Radio replacement question

I'm considering replacing my Monsoon stereo. Does anyone make an AM/FM CD player that has the same size face & will fit in the dash like the factory unit ?

Alpine and Pioneer used to make 1.5 DIN units...but that was years ago. eBay is going to be your best bet to find one...

You can always use a 1 DIN HU and an adapter plate. They work very well, look decent, and that opens up the range of head units you may purchase.

Thanks, since mine is still performing well I think I'll just keep it. That being said, does anyone know where to get replacements for those 4 little ***** that control fade, bass, etc. ?

Man, I doubt you will find those. Maybe peruse ebay/junkyards for a broken unit you can rob em off of.

Re: Radio replacement question

Hmmm....that's what I was afraid of.I saw them on ebay for Volkswagens with the Monsoon system but I don't know how similar they are or if they would fit mine. I suppose I could find something that might work
