Bill, I prefer the cleaner look of OEM radios. Don't like the styling of
most aftermarket radios - would much prefer them to look integrated. The
newer cars have good quality radios that are hard to replace with
aftermarket units. Also, I have 250+ cassette tapes dating back over 20+
years - copies of records made from various college roommates, etc., that
I listen to fairly frequently. I'd love to be able to transfer them to
CD's some day, though.
