Probably the same reason as me.. we probably prefer the way the factory ones look.. I used to have a aftermarket Clarion deck. didn't like the way it fit.. looked crappy..

Thats a newer version.. ya try it out.. you never know.. only the older ones like 89, 90, 91, 92, etc do not play finalized CD's which sucks.. since the cd player I have for the home was made in 1986 and it playes the recorded CD's.. Just for your information "86Z" that deck was never available in a thirdgen.. didn't exist.. but I do agree that is one of the nicer delco units.. I opted for for the style that was available for mine.. but I picked out one from a 1994 olds. I'm hoping it'll play recorded CD's .. but if not.. oh well.. no biggie..

yes i know it's not the original camaro one, but it will look nice, the factory cassette looks cool in there, i had a system in there but now it's not my daily driver so if i could listen to a cdr and be stock that would be great, i'll give it a try when i recieve it and let you know, otherwise i'm getting a nomad zen xtra with cassette adapter

Well its just somting you gotta deal with if you want better sound, and more options on how to do that.

The deck was the first thing I replaced, cause I did not really care about the looks compared to the quality. I mean what could you think "I have to keep a stock cd player or else it wont match up." Thats a kinda dumb statement "I really like the stock look", Well I like the stock look too, but i'm not willing to sacrifice quality to the look of cd player

i have an old cd player made in 87. It depends on what type of cd you use. It will play if i use more expensive cds with silver backing and some gold ones, but any other cheap cds dont work. You may have to expirement a bit.
