Okay, I've voiced my opinion on this very subject with someone else recently. So here we go. Again, just my opinion. Keep the a/c unit. You're going to kick yourself on those hot days when you're sweating like a stuck pig if you remove it. The record player, I'll agree, is a cool conversation piece. But that's where it ends. Just get a CD player and here's why I think you should. The sound quality is far superior to that of crappy records. CDs don't skip every time you hit a bump. When a record gets scratched, it's pretty much junk. If you damage a cd you can either fix it relatively cheaply or burn another one. My final two points should hopefully make you see the light. Firstly, on a CD you can fit about 120 songs on it. Even more, depending on song length and bit rate. Now just think of all the records you would have to firstly buy, and secondly, lug around, to equal that many songs. Your back seat would be full of records and your wallet empty of money from buying all those crappy records. My last point is that with an ipod you can have a couple hundred gigs of music playing through you deck in your car. Which, ironically, makes CDs obsolete. I still prefer burning CDs. If you loose or break a CD you're out at most a buck. If you loose or break an ipod your're out way more money and all your mp3's.

I found a 45 under dash record player on Craigslist mint for super cheap almost ridiculous. I have an under dash ac unit now that doesn't work, not yet at least. I was rolling around some ideas n thought of removing the ac unit, replacing carpet since there's a hole where the condensation would drain, and installing record player in place. Or, just leaving it alone and install player under glove compartment, but I'm afraid it's gonna clutter the front. It's a cool technology not a lot of people have seen n it'd be neat to have. Just trying to get some feedback. Thanks > > Sent from my iPhone > > -- > -- > Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
