The replacement is very simple... don't use the pre-outs, use the front l - r speaker
outputs. With the Kenwood 228 only costing $150 I don't know why I waited so long.
Not that the original deck sounds bad... but I think the Kenwood does sound better
even with the original amp and speakers. It could just be my imagination... dunno.
You have to like all the options you get (iPod, satellite and HD).
