Like me, I'm sure you both want to keep that factory look in your cars. However, as soon as you junk the Becker crap they put in our cars for most anything aftermarket, you will see just how good a new head unit can sound in our cars using factory amps and factory paper cone filters (providing they're in operable condition).

It will cost you piles of cash to get the factory stuff working properly again. Just have it removed and put a good head unit in its place along with a reasonably priced amp and be done with it. The $300ish dollar units I've found on Crutchfield.com even have switchable colors so it will be amber and look like the rest of the dash lamps.

I'm very pleased with my Alpine unit. The sound is so much clearer, louder, and better that I cannot believe it was not the first thing I did to the car when I got it. Plus, the CD doesn't skip with every little bump in the road!
