Ive got the radio sittin in my closet, Was pulled from my 03 Gt with 27K miles on it. Shoot me an offer.

I've got the OE tweeters if you have the little triangle shaped trim pieces to replace mine... I'd need to get some without tweeters in return if you have them.

I've got an 01 monsoon..just in case.

Hey GaOwner111, is that the MP3 capable unit? Same question for Ajaxus. Thanks

I saw on on E-bay for around $50. It had a little wear on the buttons where the gray plastic was coming off a bit.

Heres a tip: don't go for the Monsoon radios. I bought one off ebay, identical in every way to a Monsoon except it's the chevrolet version (lights up blue/green instead of red). Its alright, but honestly I liked my JVC MP3 deck better. The issue with mine is it plays MP3's fine AFTER it reads the cd. sometimes you'll pop an MP3 CD in and it'll fire up just fine, other times it'll keep me the disc read error and pop the CD out, and you'll have to do this 5 times in a row to get it to play. Very annoying! It only does it on MP3 Discs, regular CD's work fine. Its a great temporary soloution if your looking for MP3 Playback and you don't have a lot of money to go buy class 2 data bus harnesses, but if you can afford to go aftermarket I highly reccomend it.

Also keep in mind with an MP3 monsoon it will lock by default as soon as you fire the car up. The only way to get it unlocked is with a Tech 2 scan tool. They did it for me for free, but a lot of times they charge up to $60 for the service.

Thanks for the advice. I just wanted to upgrade the tape player for a factory looking MP3 radio.

Cormaster · 08-08-2007, 08:05 AM

yeah I hear that. That was the other reason I chose the Delco MP3 over an aftermarket. The nice thing about it potential stereo theives will look in your car and just think of it as any old factory radio and not even bother trying to steal it. And it also is the only radio that will match your interior perfectly without any modification. I did manager to make my JVC match my old GAGT's interior pretty well with a few decals and some painting

Not to sound like an ass or anything but how does ^^^^ that have a factory look to it?

Cormaster · 08-08-2007, 03:47 PM

I didn't say it had a factory look, i just said I manged to get it to match better with silver krylon paint... not to mention the stereo lit up red and blue so it matched the lights perfectly. I don't quite get why people with pontiacs get a pioneer that lights up green to go with their red lights. I acctually picked JVC out because of the red lighting, and I was acctually quite pleased

Anyway back to topic. If you do want an MP3 monsoon go for it, I was just letting you know the drawbacks, but yeah its definitly a lot better than a tape deck! It definitly looks better than any other radio, just make sure you can find a dealer who will unlock it for you cheap.
