I just bought an 82 camaro but the stereo doesn't work. I was hoping to put in a new one soon, but I realized that the stereo that are out there wont fit. I was wondering what I need to put in a new stereo and what would be a good stereo to put? Preferably one with a CD player.

 

You can go with a gm 1.5 din radio with a cd player out of a newer car or you can get an adapter and put a 1 din headunit in there which is very easy to do you can pick up the adapter at walmart. You will also need a Harness connector so you don't cut the oem stereo plug.

 

82s are diff

 

I have an 82 and i went to best buy and bought a 1 din mounting kit and it works fine. I did have to modify the wiring but thats because the previous owner tried to customize it and somehow some wire got cut that i needed
