Don't know how other people feel but I have one in my 69 barracuda and one in my 72 demon. I also put a 69 barracuda dash in my 72 so they are both thumbwheel. I like the Radioes haven't used all the features yet mainly the FM radio.

You could leave the stock radio alone, and use your smartphone to stream music into a Digital Signal Processor with a built in amp via bluetooth and then on to your speakers which can be concealed or not.

That is what I did.

Im not familiar with doing this, can you elaborate, maybe a link to what I would use? And thanks
I have a Retro Sound or Retro Radio. I forget what it's called. I don't like it at all. I am planning to get another OEM Rado and gut it to put a Bluetooth device in it. There are several threads here about these devices.

Why dont you like it? Is it one of these? RetroRadio
Anything I've read about the look alikes are they're junk. Get a hidden system and mount in glovebox or under pass seat. Blue tooth, aux input etc. Lots of options out there.

Hmmm, looks like going to a DSP or bluetooth amp may be the way to go, thanks for all the opinions guys
