Re: need radio

Better off just buying an aftermarket one, unless you are trying to restore the car.

Re: need radio

OP: If you are looking for a radio that works with the steering wheel controls, it's a very specific radio that was used for 88-89 only, and it's a cassette with 5 band EQ.

Part # on the top of it will be 16067693. They are very difficult to find in working condition.

Re: need radio

If you're willing to part with a bit of cash, there's one on e-Bay for $250. Says it's bench tested and in good working order. Also comes with the steering wheel controls.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Firebird-Tra..._Video&vxp=mtr

I can tell from the phone you posted that you're in the Seattle/King County area, I'm just across the water from you. FYI, you may want to edit those posts and remove your phone number, safer to use PM.

Re: need radio

That's the same guy trying to sell it here for 160 bucks. I put a link to it above. Seems like a great deal to me. Buy it before it's gone.

Re: need radio


That looks like the same radio in the e-Bay ad I linked - exact same photo. Looks like $80 less to TGO members.

EDIT: You beat me to it....

Re: need radio

Actually bryansbird, the one I have listed on ebay is the nicest radio I have and the only one there for some time. I just shipped another one to Alabama, hince the video. I do have another one Delco model 16062322 which is the correct one that you need.
$160 shipped.

Re: need radio

If by chance you find one, either on ebay, other seller or boneyard, make sure the top of the radio looks this first pic. 88-89
Not the second pic 90+

They are not interchangeable
