first-gen stereo swap
I'm trying to swap a new Blaupunkt CD receiver for the original stack of tuner/cassette/equalizer. I need a kit to replace all that stuff. Anyone know of a source?

Depends on what you had in mind.
1. Original antenna with new stereo
-----Get a negative triggered relay $8-20
2. New antenna assembly with new stereo
-----Just about any aftermarket antenna assembly will work $30+
I got my replacement from goodguys or circuit city. It was around $34 and I had to buy the negative trigger relay from a local stereo shop which I believe was $15. The install was very easy. The trigger simply plugs into exisiting wiring for the antenna I bought with an extra wire(signal) going to the headunit. Installing the actual antenna was one odd shaped nut located on the outside of the car where the base goes into the car and then there was 1-3 screws inside that stabilize the whole thing.
