Jeep 97 TJ Radio Replacement
Well folks,
Thanks for all your help... Opted to go custom with an Alpine Head Unit (mp3 capable and aux in for ipod...works great! This was installed in the dash to replace the original failed unit, using a marine cover...this is a smoky plastic cover that slides/rotates down to cover the Alpine and protects the unit from road dust (a major problem in the country) and rain. Does not protect the rear of the unit from rain going into the dash from the top however. Very nice installation - the marine cover can be obtained at most marine stores for about $50US, and the custom installation ran about $130US on top of that. BTW, the unit's optical remote works through the cover just fine, so really no need to ever have the cover open except to insert CD's. Cheers Tom |
