I had this cd player in my 92 RS years ago. I switched it over to my Vette since I liked it a lot. Now that I sold the vette and have the IROC.. I'd like to get another similar to it. I was actually going to keep it stock but decided I don't like the cassette radio. Are there any resources out there where I can get my hands on another one besides ebay? I checked ebay but I don't see anything. I like the flat lcd display and how the buttons hide when not using. If there is no way to get another one like this.. is there something similar?
does this deck have a mini screen built into it for watching movies? or is just a basic audio deck? I only ask because Best Buy carries a newer kameleon (spelling) jvc deck that does everything you mentioned with the lights going away and the black face, but has a 3 inch screen built into it as well. Another thing I noticed is its typically 500 new, but its clearance at most best buy for like 375 i believe. Maybe something worth looking into?

Yeah, not 100% sure it was audiovox but it was the same unit because I would look at it in the display and comment how much it looked like the JVC unit.
This was around 1998 - 1999
EDIT: I'm 100% sure it was Jenson and not any of the others I mentioned, I think this is it.

Interesting. That is very much similar. Not sure if I like it since it looks a little on the cheap side compared to the JVC. I would have to see it in person. However the $160 price tag is not too bad. Might just end up getting this one if all else fails.
why not get a new one? sound quality has to be better for a similarly priced one, plus there are a multitude of other new features: HD Radio, aux in, ipod control, mp3 cd playing, bluetooth, etc.
I paid $100 for my JVC KD-HDW10 (supposively a budget radio) and I haven't looked back.
I did have to buy an add on that plugs into the cd changer control to add AuX-in,
but for $100 it does everything I need (I mean 3 preamp outs is just crazy).
I guess I'm just still stuck on the old one since there are not too many cd players out there that look good in my opinion. Many of them look way too busy with dial knobs and buttons etc.. The JVC kd-lx1 just looked sleek and simple with the graphic equalizer lights etc..
