More to the point is the hassle factor. Back in the day, taking a radio
out was a couple of bolts. Now, the car seems to be built around the
radio, and even if I get the old radio out, I bet all the connectors are
different. Used to be easy - power cable with inline fuse, two wires to
the speaker and a socket for the aerial. Job done.

Most have used a standard 'DIN' connector for the last 20 years or so. Can
be more of a problem if it has steering wheel controls.

But if you gave the make and model of car someone may have more info.

Personally I hate things plugged into the fag lighter - they always seem
to get in the way of driving the car. ;-)
