I would like to know how many here have had problems with their factory radio on their Silverados?  Mine is the basic single cd player, with AM/FM

This is the 2nd time the radio has taken a CD, played it through, then failed to eject.  I''ve tried everything I know to get this disk out.  Even pulled the dash and the radio, no joy!
 
I guess its back to the shop again@!

Perhaps time for an aftermarket???

2005 LS, Ex Cab, 4x4, Silverado.

Thanks,

Richard

anyways, screw that. get nice aftermarket with mp3/ipod and sub capability, it''s less than 200  bucks, and DIY install. then simply enjoy.

Status: offline 		Well, I''m not looking for a high priced navagation system, just a good quality AM/FM CD radio.  I would love a mp3/Ipod plug in, but I certainly haven''t seen one selling for less than $200.00.

What brand, what model, where to buy???

I never had a problem with the quality of sound from the factory radio, but this eating of CDs just doesn''t cut it!!!

Thanks,

Richard

Replace your speakers
