Stereo upgrade - WWYD
Hi, folks
I have a 92 Honda Accord LX with 181,000 miles. Would you put a new stereo in such a vehicle? I am not looking to pimp-my-ride, But I would hate to spend money for a new sound system and the engine stops working the next week. It appears from reading past posts, if I take care of this car it should last another 180K miles. The vehicle runs beautifully as a commuter car, and I am the second owner. ed |

Stereo has nothing to do with how long your car lasts. If it doesn't last
long, just take out your stereo system and put it in your new car. I would put a stereo system in any car I use as a daily driver, be it a beater or a modified race car. If I use it on regular basis, I'll put stereo in there. John > wrote in message oups.com... > Hi, folks > > I have a 92 Honda Accord LX with 181,000 miles.

The cost of a new stereo is modest, and the risk of the car croaking on you is low. Besides, as John pointed out, you can always take the stereo out and put it in a different car later. -- ================================================== ===== A very modest collection of Honda tech info can be found at: http://www.geocities.com/ng_randolph |

I was in a similar situation almost 2 years ago (91 LX, 170k), I put a new stereo, it got stolen, I put an even better one after that and since then i'm very happy! 205.000 miles. RAT |
