I think they want the Hi-Way Hi-Fi for the same reason they want a factory
radio, as opposed to hacking the dash, the instrument panel, and the door
panels for aftermarket music radios and speakers. There is something
about re-creating the sounds as well as the look and ride (otherwise, why
not pull the Poly and throw in a modern Chevy small-block, since they are so
plentiful, newer, and many think more reliable).
If you want the feel of an old Mopar, the original sounds are part of the
package (although a hidden plug for an ipod or disk-player if OK too). The
Hi-Way Hi-Fi is cool, interesting, and part of the era.
My best friend in high school had a GM-style one in his Impala, and it was
way cool and played fine.

Now call me a cynic but why on earth would
anybody want to put a record player in their car other than to say you have
one. People say "there's nothing like the sound of vinyl." I say
"Yeah, you're right. There's no shittier sound ever
invented."If you like crackling and skipping, and
the fact that you have to carry a pile of records with you to keep you
entertained on a long drive, then go for it. You can fit 120+ mp3
songs on a CD-R. That's 60+ of those 45's, cuz if
memory serves, there's two songs to a record. And the price of a hi
fi is outrageously stupid. Especially when you can buy a new deck and a
real good pair of 6x9s for significantly less than a crappy sounding record
player.Sorry for ranting but I use to be a musician
(before the Parkinson's got me), and to me sound is everything. If my
favourite tune in the world could only be played on vinyl, I'd be looking for
a new favourite tune. Cory 65 Polara 440/727
