want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I sent a delco radio to *84TA to have a MP3 input installed. I had one before, but the radio died, and on top of that the input was on the front face, which I really didn't like. *84TA rigged a rear exit cable (nice and LONG) and also fixed the back lights for me for a very reasonable price. it looks like he also gave it a good cleaning, the thing came back looking show car worthy. I'm using my car as a daily driver now, so having a modern convenience like a MP3 input is freaking SWEET I would recommend this service to anyone who likes the factory look of their radio, but wants it to feel more modern DO NOT sent anything to *84TA, he's a CROOK https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/cl...ware-84ta.html (Beware of *84TA) |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Yeah Ive talked with him before. Seems like he would do great work. I almost bought one but ran into engine issues that had me put the radio purchase on the back burner. So I guess that this post is just another testimonial that this is a good guy to deal with, even though I havent bought a radio yet from him. 58mark post a pic! |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! well, it's not a pic of it inside the car, but here it is. you can see the cord in the pic pretty much a standard looking radio, and that's the way I like it http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s.../photo15-1.jpg |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Hello, I would like to possibly get the one in my vert done soon! I have some other stuff to finish up On iit first ! Mark do you take some of pics the radio before and after the install ? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Ur last post is one minute before mine |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I can shoot a pic of it once I figure out how to hide the input jack. I have a cool idea to investigate |

Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! That would be a question for *84TA. He did the work, i'm just reaping the benefits if enjoying the tunes |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Where's the audio coming from when you unplug the cord? What MP3 device do you have? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! The radio, and I use a zen or my DROID phone |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! very nice |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I want to find a factory CD player for my wifes 92RS and getting that done would make her REAL HAPPY. What is the cost of having that done? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Getting what done? Buying a cd player or converting a radio to a mp3 player? Factory cd players are stupid expensive, I would forget about cd and just get one you can use with mp3s. For prices, contact *84TA. I don't want to quote prices for somebody else. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Find a factory unit and get it modded for the MP3 player. I loath seeing a dash cut up for the new stuff and the associated theft that goes with aftermarket systems. The stealth of the MP3 plug in is the part I really relate to. |

Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! That really looks good and sounds great,and it also keeps it original looking.Great Job!! |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Hey Mark,I'm gonna have that done to mine also,I got in touch with 84TA and I'm meeting him in Philly in a couple of days.The thing is I can't put the jack where you did, the TA has a snap in pod cover,so I'm thinking of having it put in the face of the radio(if there's room) I don't want to mess up and drill any holes in the interior pieces."Any suggestions". |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! in my console there a hole that is already there. I thought about using that, but honestly I don't want to have to open my console every time I need to play a tune. I keep a fabric floor mat over my lid because of the heat here in Texas, and it's kind of a pain to get in and out of it I also thought about the ash tray. the removable insert could be altered, and if someday you want to put it back the way it was, ashtrays are a dime a dozen and you could get another one you also could just run the cable along the console and have it come out in the area between the console and the carpet, reach down with your hand when you want it, and it's there. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Ash tray,good idea,I don't use mine.I pulled the ash tray out and their is a screw that holds down the console I'll have to look in there to see if their is room. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Dropped mine off to 84TA,should have it Sunday. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I loaded my mp3 player up with 120 songs, and haven't uplugged it since... LOL |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Must really sound good,had my subs restored and my amp fixed,hope mine sounds as good as yours. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I don't use a sub or an extra amp, just factory head unit with nice JBL speakers. I bet yours blows mine away, but I'm not willing to lose my hatch storage for a sub |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! No,I have the factory UQ7 system,the subs are in the sail panels and the amp is in the dash. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! wow, nice! what size are the subs? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Their I think 5 and a half in. subs and the speakers are 4x6 stock. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Interesting. My sail panel speakers are 6x9, and the bass frequency isn't good enough to make effective subs |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I know your not going to hack up your car for subs!!!but yours sound really good without them,how loud do you want them,I'm 60yrs.old,and only listen to oldies,the subs sound real good on some songs,I'm a tremble guy really. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Temptations great song,I listen to all oldie Motown,Smokey,Four Tops,etc,etc,Band sounds good,you would do good here in South Jersey and Philly. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! MOTOWN Funk brothers! Fav movie of all time... standing in the shadows of motown. ever seen it? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Pistol Allen,Poppa Zita,Brother,Brother,Brother.Great movie. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I'm partial to the man, the one and only James Jamerson. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! That's the music I'm going to put in(down load)in the MP3 we only have two good oldie channels in this area and only one is really great 92.1 FM out of Vindland NJ. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! If it weren't for these guys,would there have been a Motown??? |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! no way. They were the motown heart and soul. A truly unique hit machine What I wouldn't give to tour the snake pit. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! It took almost 20 yrs.to put Jamerson in the R+R Hall of fame,I think he died in early 80s 82-83 |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! yeah. sad demons of drugs and boose. You're making me go to youtube. I'm listening to bernedette right now |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Well I'll chat with you later,I'll let you know how 84TA did. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Hey Mark,got mine back from 84 TA this morning and this thing SOUNDS GREAT,I can't believe the sound that is coming out of this,It's like a whole new system. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Cool! I'm about to send move back to him for a repair not related to the work he already did. Glad you like yours! |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! Hate shipping,I got lucky,he's 20 minutes from me just across the bridge.I had him put it on the face on the radio,it looks good and it's convenient.I have a spare radio if for some reason it has to be original.I put a photo on my album where he put the jack,I don't know how to put a photo in the tread. |
Re: want a MP3 delco? READ THIS! I never did update this thread... *84TA stole my radio and my money. do NOT send him a radio to work on. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/clas...ware-84ta.html |
