Hey Guys.

My '82 280zx's radio is now busted.

What would be a good idea to replace it with?

(think cheap, and rather quick.)

P.s. was thinking bout' going up to murrays buying one of the $30 tape decks, or the $50 cd player ones... they're cheap.

If that'll do the trick for you, then you should be fine.

$30??? If you are going cheap, go to a swap meet / garage sale... tape decks are about $10... and WORTH about $10 too.

lol, the problem I'm having is putting it in, getting the radio is easy, making it work with my car is the hard part, with out re-wiring th whole damn thing.

go to walmart, they got the wiring adapter for our cars, seems nobody else does for whatever reason. they also sell the install kit too. may have to order that.

StylusRose

bah, I just bought one of those adapters and it doesn't fit my car o.o
off to return it an look for a new one...

as for a mounting kit, I found out how to just make my own with out needing to order anything :3

as a side note, for those who live in michigan, Meijer also sells the wiring adapters.

Also, the closer you get to detroit the less common Z's are, there are less than 5 z cars in about a 100 mile radius from where a live...
