Title: Radio Bluetooth Conversion
Post by: mbrunson427 on October 26, 2020, 10:09:42 PM
I have been looking for companies that do vintage radio conversions, thinking about putting new guts in my Galaxies old radio. I can search and find about 5-10 companies that say they can do this. My question, has anybody done this and can you recommend a company you were happy with?

Here are just a few a quick google search finds:

I would settle for a simple aux. input for my AM radio, don't listen to FM anyway. I know that I am turning into an old curmudgeon but do not want endless features to fool with while just wishing to play music from my iPHONE. Just my two cents.

All three of the outfits you referenced are listed as dealers for Aurora Designs, which appears to be the the company actually developing and performing the conversions.

Secret audio is a unit you can hide in the car and use your iPhone and as remote

I want to add one to my Galaxie

I’m going to run a Dakota digital dash which will eliminate the radio
