I have been attempting to check off some long-standing to do's, and one of them was installing period-correct audio components in the 1989 Isuzu Trooper RS. I had snagged an old Blaupunkt and have long had a vintage K40 CB radio to install and finally found time to get to Sights & Sounds in Wakefield, RI for the install.
First, the Blaupunkt I got out of a junkyard was no good. Fortunately, Scott - the owner of Sights & Sounds - reached into his deep inventory of NOS equipment and found an awesome JVC cassette deck with perfect backlighting to match the neon green glow of the Trooper gauges. It works beautifully and the stock speakers still sound surprisingly good.
The K40 CB I rescued out of a junked Mercedes eons ago powered up as expected, and Scott drilled a small hole in the drip rail to mount the whip antenna securely. The unit itself mounted neatly under the glove box on the passenger side.
All told, for a very modest investment, the Trooper has a tidy audio setup that matches the cabin perfectly and gives some classic 90s audio equipment a new lease on life in a truck that came back to life itself just last year.
