Dang that seems pretty rare. At least from all the camaros I have seen in the past.

What's even more rare is that it apparently still works.

UQ1 : RADIO PROVISIONS, FOR STEREO

U1C is the option code for the factory CD Player. I'm one of those crazy guys who paid a lot for the factory deck. I got it for a good deal on e-bay. and then send it in through the dealer to be refurbished. Looks and works great. 1989 was the first year the factory CD player was available. Mine originally had the good tape deck with the EQ (still got it). but I wanted the CD player. If you want the greater possibility of playing CDr's get the newer one. I got one out of a 1994 Oldsmobile (last year it was avaialble). It has newer electronics. Though it is still picky as to which recorded cd's it'll play. but thats not a big deal to me anyways. The 1991-92 cd players where the only ones that had the yellow text on the buttons. The 89 - 90 had white text. I picked for mine white text with a silver/grey button face instead of the standard black button face. Looks much nicer.

Good Lord I have asked everywhere and no one can tell me why everything went yellow. Its so OLD and retarded looking. All I can think was it might have been a "fad" back then, but I was only 12 then so I dunno.

question...i got one in my z..now it came with a pioneer pos that i ripped out, and put it back to stock (the car is stock front to back xcept the racing stripes and blackouts)....the radio works, but not the cd player..would the delcolock keep cd's from playing and let the radio work, or would the whole thing be useless?

if the radio is locked. then your out of luck. the whole thing is shut down until the correct code is put in. As for the text being yellow.. ya I think it might have been some kind of fad. was kinda silly when you look at it. Guess it would be ok. if the whole car was yellow..
