I'm not expecting much, if anything out of the radio in this car. It basically just has to look good. I can't imagine many guys are driving around listening to AM radio anymore lol

That said, I'll put in the effort to get it working.

That is why I asked. When I thought my AM radio wasn't good, I sent out an AM/FM mono radio to be gone thru. Turned out to be the speaker. But, I didn't want to add the rear speaker either and skipped sending out a "red dot" unit. My AM/FM mono unit looks and works good.
