All right, I'm a big old school muscle car kind of guy, and I have a '77 Monte Carlo That I'm in the middle of restoring. And if anyone knows what the interior looks like, the cd player is practically part of the dash-board. So, can someone tell me if its possible to add a nice cd player in there.

Price Range: $100 - $500.

Thank's to the people who can contribute. If anyone needs anymore information, just post it. I'll try to help you :tongue:

Almost anything should work. I know that it's a very integral part of the dash, but there should be adapter kits out there. Try some of the restoration places like year-one, or classic industries.

All right, a friend just suggested just to saw the dash in half if you know what that means, but all right I'll try searchin around, would you know anymore sites I could visit that could possibly have those? ie the site urls...

It's the 2-post type of radio/cassette isn't it? If so, just about your only option for an in dash CD would be to cut/dremmel all that crap out so you can fit a DIN sized deck in there. Another option would be a seperate CD changer, if you're looking to retain the OEM look.

Yeah, someone suggested that, just adding it at the bottom or something, but I think I will just cut or dremmel the dash, or like Gman said, I might buy something off that sight to keep it lookin' stock.
