Default 90 Vert - Stereo Question - Help Please...

I need some help from the forum please. I would like to know if the stock Bose Gold Series CD/Tape Stereo & Speakers / Amps from a 95 Vert will fit in my 90 Vert. The stock stereo in my car was replaced with crap before I bought it and they never changed the speakers. So my system sounds horrible. I found a entire system avail for sale from another forum member, but want to make sure it fits before I buy.

Thanks in advance for any inputs!

Default Don't do it...

Yes, it will fit, But the color of the lights is different. Yours is orange, the 95 is white.
If you go to the Audio section and read the C4 FAQ, it has all of the info for replacing what you have with a nice aftermarket system for not alot of money; I mean, if I could do it (in the winter time too!!) you can. If you have any questions, there are several people on that forum that can help you. The guy who wrote to FAQ sticky is Andy Bogus, and he can help you with what ever you need.

Good Luck!!

I think that there is another differance also...in the 90 the radio receiver is located under the passenger side dash. I think that it was moved into one of the rear compartments in later C4's...

There shouldn't be any major obstacles, just a little tweaking of the wiring, which goes with any stereo installation.
