WTB Radio for 93 Concord

Want to buy a (factory) radio for a 1993 Chrysler Concord

 

Why? The factory radio in my 94 LHS sucked. Better off with another brand.

 

Though I do not disagree with you, I still would like to buy a working
factory radio for the above car because mine just bit the dust and I happen
to like radios that suck. Now that we understand each other, do you have a
working factory radio? If you don't, there is no need to reply. Thanks.

 

Hi...

I'm new to Chrysler, being an old retired guy who drove GM's all my
life. A '94 LHS. Can't tell it from brand new, except that the display
on the radio didn't work.

Went through a long and confusing learning process as a result of that
durned display, and learned quite a bit, at a bit of a price.

Having said all that, don't - don't jump at the first one you find,
they're not all the same; very very different.

Others here can guide you far better than I, but if you want a bit
of detail, feel free to send me an email and I'll be happy to tell you.

Take care.

Sorry about the previous posts. The computer went nuts....

I have the same problem as you with my Infinity radio. I have no display and
cannot change channels. It sounds like an AM radio who has no antenna. I
would like to replace it with the same radio if possible.

 

Hi...

No problem; here's what I've learned...

Original display was out though everything else worked perfectly and
sounded unbelievably good. A personal hangup is a burned out bulb, so...

Found a local add for a pull from a 2000 minivan. Bought it (cheap) on
the spot and installed it. Display worked, everything did, but it sure
didn't sound anything like the original did. Good enough, had I not
heard the original, but not after.

Difference was that the original said infinity on it, this pull didn't,
and key is that original had 5 band equalizer; this one only three.
Sounds like not much, but it's a huge difference! Also, this one
wouldn't reliably play burned cd's. No prob for me, but according to
my grand daughters it was the end of the world.

So, I finally found another perfect 5 band infinity, and it's great.

Wanted you to make sure that you knew the difference, and how important
it is.

Also, the "ears", or whatever they're properly called. The tabs through
which the mounting bolts go. Seems all have on the bottom left, but
there are differences in the topmost one. Some point up, others point
to the right.

Finally, there are some available (expensive) on ebay, but another
poster here (sorry, forget who) warned me that there are scams going on
with them - so if you go that route beware.

Finally, finally, I still have the 2000 minivan pull and don't want
it - remember that it won't play burned cd's - that you can have if you
like for what I paid for it. Dunno what it would cost to ship, though,
nor what USA customs would charge you (I'm in Canada)

Hope this is a bit helpful.

Does it say Infinity on it? Do you want one with a tape player or not?

I just bought from Walmart (Yeah, I know, but nobody else carried the damn
things)
a VR3, this hangs on a keychain and broadcasts in FM, it has a USB port that
you
upload mp3's to and 128MB of flash. That will probably hold my entire CD
collection.
$37. for it.

You bought a car radio?

Thanks for the replies, Ken. I need a 5 slider equalizer with a tape player.
I really don't want to mess around with customs and long distance shipping
because it is not worth that much to me.

 

I have a radio from a '93 Voyager - $15 plus postage.

I have the upscale radio, equalizers and cassette deck, in my '95
Concord.
It's the best car radio I've ever had.

 

That sounds like the lovely radio in my '95 Concord.
Now if only it would play CDs.
