Radio

OK, so I am restoring my IROC to factory specs and have the RPO code to determine which radio to get. The only problem is after months of searching online, I am about to give up.

Any ideas or suggestions to find this other than a shot-in-the-dark junkyard to find the exact radio? I've tried all the following:

Craig's List
eBay
Modern Day Muscle
Eckler's
Hawk's Third Gen
F-Body Warehouse
Summitt


Please HELP! Thanks

Re: Radio

pictures of exactly what you want would be the easiest to get results. A lot of us have radios laying around, but don't know exactly what models it came with.

Re: Radio

As mentioned, that was a common radio from 90-92. I have one out of a 1991 Camaro RS lying around, so it was an option in the bone stock camaro's too.

Re: Radio

Not sure of the variations of cassette decks, but there was a compact disk option back then.

Re: Radio

Still in need of a 1990-1992 factory radio for Camaro. RPO code indicates seek/scan option; no cd player or equalizer. If you have one, or know where it can be found, please let me know as Google isn't bringing anything up.

Thanks!
