Thumbs up Long Response Warning...

"Matt, give more info on it..... like what does it do and the cost?" -GT182

In a nutshell...
The RediRad allows you to enjoy the music from any (yes, ANY) portable music player through your 12V factory automobile AM (or AM-FM or AM-FM-tape) radio.

If you are an audiophile, the RediRad probably isn't for you. But if you want to enjoy music while you cuise in your Pontiac and originality is important either from a vehicle value or aesthetic standpoint, the RediRad is the best -and most affordable- solution the problem. Price is $119 thru PY (part number RPZ189).

RediRad Features...
-> the RediRad automatically switches between broadcast AM and your portable player when music is detected at the audio cable.
-> you retain your UNMODIFIED AM or AM-FM radio because the RediRad routes signal to the AM band, not the FM band.
-> your car does NOT need an antenna because the RediRad keeps the signal with the coax cable. (so you're golden even if you have a rod or custom with either dummy antennas or no antenna at all)

-> save hundreds of dollars over having your original radio gutted and filled with modern stuff.
-> a dashboard with that factory appearance
-> no hidden stereos to jag around with or be stolen.

I should mention that installing a RediRad is painless:
1) unplug the antenna from the radio (if equipped) then plug the RediRad into the radio's antenna socket.
2) connect the RediRad to +12V power and negative ground.
3) if you have an antenna, plug it into the RediRad.
4) route the 6' audio cable (with a universal 1/8" plug) so you can plug it into your portable player(s).

...you guys still awake?

"Any links to a website for it?" -GT182
Sure! Please see my signature below...

If you're interested in trying one, I would like to emphasize that PY carries the RediRad.
