I’m wanting to replace my radio and want to know what to replace it with that looks good

 

Just go to any website or store that sells AM/FM heads, you want one of the marine heads. Marine heads match our interior rather well.
They are more expensive than other heads, but they are the best option from a cosmetic standpoint.

I put an $85 JVC unit in and am way better off than the factory crap. But my interior is custom so the fact it does not match the factory interior is not a factor for me.



This one looks good but is probably a cheap piece of crap:

THIS is a nice one:

I will check out the one at Best Buy!

 

Lots of options like pizzaguy stated above. Below is the unit I selected and installed.



I think the Kenwood marine units have a better matching surround, but that wasn't a main driver for me when I needed to replace the OEM unit. The faceplate is removable on the Pyle unit I installed. Is that a significant feature? Not like it used to be.

You might also check out the Crutchfield website also. Sometimes they have re-manufactured units & you can save some money.

 

I recommend following this wiring documentation attached by GregWork. One of the better DIY documents for wiring up an aftermarket stereo head. And a Kenwood unit, to boot.

 

Thanks to Greg Work for this excellent documentation and instruction. And great photos too.
