Jim the parts radio I have works 100% but the other one I have seems to have a problem with the tape deck. I tried a cassette in it several times and it auto reversed once and ejected the cassette each time. Don't know what this means other than that I might need to get more than just the brackets and knobs from the donor deck. Surprising since the deck I wanted to keep is supposed to be from a real low-mile GN that was/is owned by Mike Licht but I guess it's still over 20 years old...
Does the problem my radio has sound like it's got to do with the part you need? If not maybe I can send it to you and keep the other one. The one that works is not a GN radio though; all the buttons are black and the faceplate doesn't have the stripe around it. Can the faceplate and buttons be easily switched between the two so I can have a correct looking and fully functional deck for in my car?
