Product Details

Description

This is a genuine OEM Pontiac AM/FM Cassette Radio removed from a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. This unit features the high-tier 7-Band Graphic Equalizer, allowing for precise audio tuning that standard base radios lack.

As a genuine Delco component, this radio is designed to integrate perfectly with the Pontiac dash illumination and Steering Wheel Controls (if equipped). Choosing a genuine OEM head unit is vital for maintaining the classic "Pontiac Red" interior aesthetic. Unlike aftermarket radios, this unit requires no dash kit or wiring harness adapters—it is a direct plug-and-play replacement that maintains the original factory look and feel.
