are you looking for something that will look OEM? they don't really do that anymore.

other then that, go look around- there are tons of radios around. or go to a local radio show, or a highway-side CB shop, or a pawn shop, or a yard sale or... whatever.

Re: C.B. Radio in my car??

i've got a citizen's band radio in my car, although mostly it's to get 'smokey' reports from truckers, and to find friendly rigs to follow on long trips. i use GMRS or business band for caravanning, unless the other party has an amature licence
