This is off topic, but vital to the health of my marriage and my freedom to go to tractor shows also! Our 93 suburban with factory installed radio that has a tape player in a seperate place on the right side of dash and also a graphic equalizer right beside the tape deck has problems. The radio volume control has become unuseable. Either it is too loud,too low or nothing. This is the third one in the car since new. I have an almost new Radio Shack Optimus stero with built in auto reverse tape deck that I installed in a blazer , when the car was traded I kept the new radio and put the GM radio back in the blazer. The radio has an adapter kit with faceplate and the correct wiring harness connections to hook into a GM 4 speaker set up. I would like to install this into the suburban. The mechanical installation will be simple, the kit has the right face plate and wiring harness for GM products from 1988 thru 2000 when I bought it al. The question is this; what would I do about the factory tape unit and the graphic equalizer setups? Maybe bypass the original tape player and just hook to the graphic equalizer with the wiring harness connectors? It is a very nice unit and I would like to install it so she will let me off the hook. Does any body out there have an answer? Any good GM sound technicians, or just good radio installers? How about it people?? Gene Davis

There is a dummy deal you put in place of the OEM radio control head to make the empty space a little junk cubbyhole.

Then, get a radio mounting kit to match the dash color. That will fit an aftermarket radio/tapeplayer/cdplayer or whatever in place of the OEM tape player/equalizer.

At least, that's how the 'pro's" do it!

(I never could figure out what the GM engineers were thinking when the out that tape deck/equalizer so far to the right, beyond the safe reach of the driver?)

Thanks Bob. I have a kit that is the correct color already. I was just wondering what to do for the tape dek/equalizer. I don't think the GM engineers were thinking at all when they positioned those in the dash!!
