Got a car stereo to spare?

[Fierce Critter]

As mentioned in the CC aftermath thread, a thief jacked our car stereo on Saturday night. We had a Kenwood CD/MP3/Sirius-ready unit, KDC-MP522 (there's one on eBay right now, and no, not being sold from Detroit ). It had a remote control. This was a gift we gave ourselves a couple years ago, I forget the occasion.

I am hoping to find any kind of car stereo. It will suck not being able to play MP3's & CD's, but beggars can't be choosers. We still have a Sirius receiver we picked up for a minivan we sold earlier this year, and that can broadcast over any FM frequency, so the Sirius end is covered (if we want to reactivate our account, that is).

The vehicle is a 99 Chevy S-10. The wiring harness is still there, so hoping to find something compatible.

I'm checking with my roomie. We may have a spare AM/FM/CD car stereo available. Doesn't play MP3's but it is a CD player. Should know more later tonight or tomorrow.

Turns out my roomie has a JVC AM/FM/CD car stereo available. It has a removeable faceplate if you are interested.

I've got a car stereo to spare, it's an Audiowave (yeah pretty no name). Me and my friend tested it with a 12 volt adapter and some computer speakers, powered up and worked so I was happy. Got it off of E-Bay for around 90 (bah, import shipping, or so they claimed) and it does MP3/SD/USB media (which I thought was neat and why I bought the damned thing in the first place). Unfortunately there is no remote.

With the new car I think I want to keep the shitty stock one cause it looks better in it, or link up a computer inside of it and link it to that (stock radio sounds like shit, probably going with option B).

I'll let you have it for what I payed for it total if you want.

Draco and his roomate kindly donated a really decent CD player/receiver to the cause.

Installed it tonight and I'm VERY happy!

Thanks so much, guys. Now the road won't be so boring anymore.

You still got those? I need some sounds for my ride o death.

[MarsDustDoug]

yes i do. They are two seperate in carpeted boxes MTX thunder 6000 12"s (about 5 years old) the amp the amp is only about 3 years old. its a MTX 2 channel bass amp... that I seem to have missplaced in the basement of doom. Its down there just gotta find it...

I believe the amp is a MTX4250D (shortly after repalcing my bass amp I sold that car and the new car had great sound so im a bit sketchy on the model number without it infront of me)

i will tear through my basement this week lookin for the little bugger even if you arent interested... irks me to not know here it is.

I have our old car CD player. It works fine. The wiring I think is messed but not unfixable. It was that way when we took it out.

If your interested let me know.
