    Any good ideas on finding a panel to replace the stock radio panel with, its broke and the stock stereo has long been awol, something i can put a cd player in. Not many good radio stations in hawaii and you lose em in the mountains and tunnels. :Do No:

    What car? All of the CD players I've seen come with a trim bezel that's much bigger than the dual shaft opening in the dashboard. They never look quite right to me, but they can be installed cleanly.

    You can check hobby or art supply stores for sheets of black plastic that can be cut to whatever shape you need. I don't think you're going to find any "pre-made" solutions.

    Presuming you have a 68 through 72 GS or 'lark here is one option for you. And you might even be able to reuse your junked bezel. There are other options too including a number of good choices (so I've heard) from Custom Autosounds.

    you could always make one in shop class, if you are in school. That's what I did for my electra.

    Hey Nick I came across a radio plate/bracket/mount yesterday at the salvage yard. The chrome is nasty, but the plastic is all intact. Mr. Gs in Texas, I believe can rechrome it rather reasonably? Take care out there! Dad.
