Converting Original Radio

67 GTX · Feb 4, 2018

Has anyone dealt with companies who convert the original radio into AM/FM/MP3/Bluetooth?

I was looking at doing this instead of putting a new radio in my glove box.
Can anyone recommend any companies they've used?

Thanks

I have a retro sound radio. But there are people that do the conversion.

I used Gary Tayman. Happy with the results. He even helped me over the phone when I 'wasn't doing it right' while trying to operate it once installed.

RediRad.com plug and play adapter is what I'm using. Works great and inexpensive too for what it does.

Good luck

I used this guy on both my cars, nothing but good things to say. I now have am/fm/ Bluetooth, usb and aux in both my stock looking dashes ! I wouldn't have it any other way.

Not to Hijack this thread, but anyone have picture of a Retrosound Redondo with thumb wheels and a factory faceplate?

Am I correct in saying that having my AM radio converted to fm, Bluetooth, and mp3 jack will probably cost between $500-600?

That's what my research has lead me to believe.

Same here & for only $100.00. No need to have you orig. radio ripped apart. I just installed mine last weekend in a 1/2 hr. I'm still playing around to get the sound to come in crisp & clear but I'm also using the orig. dash only speaker.

I started looking into that. Does your phone plug directly into it? And does it have bluetooth?
