Retrosound radio -
Has anyone installed one of these yet, and how do they like it? I was thinking of getting one for my '67.

Re: Retrosound radio -
Only problem I have is they don't play IPod and there's not a CD player version available.

Re: Retrosound radio -
basically a radio that's digital and fits in the stock hole and has AM/FM but no CD player or IPod hookup and it's got a USB port but it doesn't work with ipods

Re: Retrosound radio -
so the front aux. input will not work for ipods? the usb input will work with any flash drive but it also has an aux input.

Re: Retrosound radio -
I think the aux input will but I emailed the company and can forward you the email if you'd like but I asked about if they had a model with a CD player: answer was no and if this USB plug worked with IPods and the answer was no. I assume the aux one will but I have a like 2 year old head unit in my car and it actually has a cable that connects the ipod to it and you can go through your ipod playlists and everything on the head unit itself without having to fiddle with the ipod itself and it stays hidden in my glovebox so i never have to worry about anyone even knowing it's there

Re: Retrosound radio -
I'm just not crazy about that Chevy emblem on the front. It doesn't look right for some reason. Just my 2 pennys.
