    Howdy everybody! i'm a noob of the highest order ( so don't be rough on me!). Nice to have found a resource for my Mav. I've been lurking around for a day or so and it seems to be filled with knowledgable fanatics. i look forward to learning whatever i can.

    i left a couple of pictures of my ride.

    you know i searched around for cd installation info and came up with nothing.
    Can any of you point in my in the right direction?

    Thanks,
    sydney

    :Welcome:

    Nice looking car. By CD installation, do you mean you want to install a new CD player head unit? If so, make a post over in the Audio sub form in Technical and we can help you out. I've done it a couple of times.

    I agree, can't believe I didn't catch that yesterday. Looks like a '73 LDO car to me.

    Those things are awesome. I used one in my Grabber for several months last year while I saved up to buy a new head unit. Just plug it into anything with a headphone jack, find an empty frequency on the radio to set it to, and you're good to go. I just hooked mine to a little portable CD player. Now we use it with my brother's laptop to play MP3's straight off the laptop through the car stereo. I love that thing.
