Neither I nor the previous owner have the critter. His description
sounds to me like a 3 minute fix but he didn't, he pulled it and had an
plumbing school dropout install a horrible $1,300 kludge that I
generously told him he could keep if he'd get me a usable radio, not
something off some space craft that he didn't know how to work himself!

Installation is going to be fun, plumbing school dropout and now full
time radio installer cut wires, broke plastic, bent, prodded, massaged
and got the kludge to partially work, he didn't even know the car has
headrest speakers and hadn't hooked them up, now he's going to try and
install a radio in my car. Wanna bet I'll be watching with an eagle
eye?

Not for me, I plan on making a run to California to see my sister in a
week or so, I want a radio, the freeway gets very boring... but I'll
enjoy highway 74 and 371 from Palm Desert to Aguanga! I hope I run
into little traffic, the curves tend to slow the flatland tourists down
to 3.7mph on a 45mph road.
