Or if you were happy with the features and sound quality, you can usually
find a used replacement unit for whole lot less at your local salvage yard
or by searching E-Bay.


Or, like top-posting Bob notes, junkyards are sometimes good. Don't let 'em
rip you off though. Ford radios ain't known for their sonic purity. For
many years Ford used the car's frame as the signal return ground from the
speakers... not a good idea if you know anything about RFI, but it saved
them the cost of 15 feet of 18ga wire, maybe $0.50 if that.
