I looking for a AM-FM CD unit for the Toy Hauler.
A OEM take-out from a vehicle would be fine.
If any one has something sitting around they want to get off the garage shelve let me know.;)
Thx,

Check e-bay. Or better yet. Go with a new automotive in-dash. They are pretty cheap now. Should be able to get a nice unit for well under $200. Forget the crappy quality OEM stuff. Its usually pretty junky and you will probably short it out trying to figure out the wiring (non standard). Most in-dash auto stuff comes with wireless remote and is 12V. Go to www.crutchfield.com to browse. Good luck.

Have you bought from that site before ? Looks good. Thanks for the link.
Yes, its for the wife to listen to music & take her CD's. Personally I would not put it in for myself. Unless you can get the financial stations on AM there is no use for a radio [:0];)
Thanks,

Crutchfield rocks, just don't get on the mailing list! When you start getting catalogs every six months (or so), you start wanting more than you need. Believe me, I'm actually suprised I don't have a spare deck lying around, but I must have garage sale'd 'em. But, they always have some great closeout deals for last years models in the paper catalog, not sure if they show them online.

Hey Wayne, how ya do'in ... I was cruising through Crutchfield & found what I think will work great. They look like great prices. As long as some of you have delt with them before I feel good about ordering it.
Thanks for the input.
>>> Just ordered a JVC KD-G120 for $79. I did not think I could go to wrong with this unit.
Crutchfield is great........I'm glad I forget it's out there.[:I]
Dang, now I gotta go look.....

You could always get a satelite ready head unit. I know Sirius has CNbc and other wall street programing 24/7, plus it picks up a signal anywhere.
