Upgrade Audio that looks stock?

[andante147]

Hi, all - I have an '03 GTP ... has the Bose stereo sounds fine (for a guy putting a kid through college!) but the audio head lights are out, and I'd really like to have iPod connection (maybe other options but that's the main one) Is there an upgraded stereo that would fit and look stock? Would a head unit from a newer model fit? I really hate the aftermarket look - in this car in particular because it's near perfect cosmetically and I don't want it to look cheesy.

If a newer unit won't match, what's your opinion on the best looking (affordable) replacement unit?

Thanks!

Dan

your best bet is to get these items:

might need this:
GM Antenna Adapter OEM power antenna male to Motorola cable female at Crutchfield.com

and I have one of these and I love it.
JVC KD HDR50 Radio / HD radio / CD / MP3 player / digital player

Add an input and keep the stocker!

Sonds like the bulb in the radio needs to be replaced for the display. You can add an adapter to add an auxillary input to the factory radio.

This should help with the bulb replacement.

Ya man its just the bulb that needs replacing. No need to add a crappy looking headunit. :th_thumbsup-wink:
