I kept the am in the dash and had a high end stereo place put one in my
glove box. I use a remote and no one knows it is there.

If you are not going to be showing in the concours class of MCA shows (where the glove box or trunk will have to be open for view), I would go the hidden modern radio method.

I have two cars with the In-dash replacement radios and they are barely adequate. The fit is good and you get FM and cassette, but the low power output and so-so fidelity severely limit listening enjoyment, IMHO. Your YMMV.

Hope this helps,
