Anyone have an aftermarket radio in your SA?
I'm just trying to figure out how and if a modern CD player will fit in the SA's center bezel. It has such small openings for one I would think you'd almost certainly have to modify or cut out the bezel to fit a standard DIN player.
Anyone have pictures?

Pretty much any modern radio mount will require cutting sheetmetal. The stock radio (like all of them at the time) mounted from the **** shafts, which modern radios don't have.
You can trim the sheetmetal out to accomodate DIN pretty easily, but it's a one-way deal. I used a dremel, hacksaw, and files.

I wanted the below space for a guage set.
Many people have taken to mounting DIN radios in the space below the stock radio (where the casette player, or the storage cup, are) to avoid carving metal.

So the moral of the story is to find a spare bezel to play with? I think there's one in the car at the local junk yard... Gotta get a CD player first though
