[QUOTE=YELLOWOPELINNH;163209]I have searched the archives and can't find the information i was hoping for. I want to replace the original AM radio with something newer that is at least an AM/FM model.QUOTE]
In my opinion the newer radios with their busy displays look out of place on most Opels (highly customized cars excepted). I second the idea of finding a nice older AM/FM cassette and using a cassette or FM adapter for an MP3 player. A rare find is a shaft mount radio with auxiliary input. Whatever it is, you should make sure it has enough built-in power or (my preference) preamp outputs for an external amplifier. The added benefit of using an older head unit is that you don't have to worry so much about theft.

p.s. Besides eBay, you could look in wrecking yards. Many have a stack of radios pulled from cars on the shelf to choose from.
