RediRad RR100N 12 volt negative-ground AM-band Classic Car Radio Adapter for iPod / MP3 / CD / Sirius-XM Radio players Review
I installed this product in my 1966 Mustang in May- I can heartily endorse it if you have the stock AM radio and don’t want to lose the originality and look in your dash.
The product works well and having MP3’s play through the original AM radio and dash speaker is def. a throwback. I personally like the contrast of hearing the songs in LOW fidelity, as you would have in 1966.
Here are the PRO’s-
Easy installation-took me about a half hour. The Redi Rad mounts under the dash. I mounted mine right under the radio and used the IGN switch as my power source. Redi Rad even encloses useful connectors to crimp on the end of your wires during installation.
I ran the Redi Rad jack wire under my carpet, right next to the trans hump, passenger side. I like to skip songs constantly, so having the MP3 player available right in my hand was my goal. The wire convienetly pokes out of the seam between the carpet, just in the perfect place. Also a bonus, the wire is just the perfect length to do this, no cutting needed.
Can listen through an IPOD or other MP3 player device to your music.
Can even hook up a small FM radio to it, as long as it has a headphone jack(just the same as an IPOD) which gives you both AM/FM if you really need that.
Shipping and customer service was top notch, got mine in less than three days, and that was standard shipping- seem like nice people to do business with.
CONS-
Price- 0. You get to keep your original radio, but some might want to pump that money into upgrading the entire system. Buy this ONLY if you want to go for originality or don’t want to spend 0 buying one of the repro radios(which for my money, still don’t beat an original unit).
I would recommend this product- it has performed well and for what I was looking for, originality, stock radio, I now get to hear my modern songs through an original AM radio- can’t beat it!
