jefflaur1 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Hmmm..owners books says "push MENU" and scroll thru the Bass..Treble..Balance..etc"..IF I push "menu" Here's all I get: Scan MAN <SCAN> VEH ID ..and back to the top. Anything not "unlocked"? or do I need to upgrade to get a bass/treble" function. This is a basic XL with just the front seats, and crank windows etc...and the basic radio (No CD or Aux features) How much to upgrade to a better factory radio? Anyone out there want to sell the one that came with thiers after installing an aftermarket unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Since no one else seems to be answering you, I will. I think you are correct about the radio. I believe the owner’s manual is incorrect in stating that it has tone control, and also about setting the clock with this particular radio. Your idea about buying a take out is a good one. I’d like to do that as well but there don’t seem to be any sellers at the moment. In the meantime you may want to do what I have. I purchased a cheap ($12) transmitter to play MP3s on the FM radio. Since there is an equalizer in my MP3 player, the sound is considerably better that way. These transmitters are available at Wal-Mart and auto supply stores.

rooney2oons Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 The standard radio does not do anything but turn on. I believe you can get the dash kits in the usa now. $100 radio, $50 door speakers (yes they need to be upgraded), and about $50 for the dash kit and harness. You will be much happier.

Mandatory Upgrade! Check car stereos on sale at Best Buy. I paid around $250 installed for a basic Alpine CD with MP3, Alpine speakers, and dash kit. Its awesome for the money and the best car stereo system I have enjoyed in many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
