I have the third option but only found out after i wired up my gt 42 and 28 , there was no music , wrong wires ha(not my error the the other two options arent listed even for us mobile audio guys )

Those old rotary dial phones (hey, they're rotaries too!) were masterpieces of industrial design and I much prefer them to the twinky little cellphones of today.

I also had a little antenna box in the center of my roof that attached to the thing under my bins, as well as a little microphone looking thing that was connected up by my visor. There is also another connector that looks like it accepts an ethernet or similar cable and a little speaker with a ton of associated wiring up under my dash that I removed. Up around my area it would make sense that it would be some sort of CB Radio as a lot of older people I know used to have them.

Yup, and they'll last longer than I'll be alive. I have two rotary phones for nostalgia purposes myself. They both still work pretty much like new. One is an Ericsson Ericofon and the other is an old Western Electric two-line office phone from 1960.
