Re: Factory CD players?
From what ive read you could get a factory cd player as early as 1989.Most people will tell you 1990 but they do have a section for the cd player in my 1989 camaro gm shop manual

Re: Factory CD players?
Sounds like you're possibly looking to add a cd player to your car, is that correct? If you've got a bird, the newer cd players look pretty decent in the dash as-is, Camaro maybe not as much. Since my 87 deck is cassette, I'm planning on switching in the stock piece I had in my 97 GTP. Picked up a wiring harness from the junk yard yesterday and look forward to doing the swap shortly.

Here's a good pic from the '91 brochure . . .

They first appeared in the '90 brochures, but might have been available as early as '89, however I can't confirm this. Note; they won't play some of the newer CD's or the MP3 format.
