Full FM Stereo Conversions With MP3 or Ipod attachment

Tadpole Radios provide modern sound systems for classic cars without affecting the look and character of your car.

Modern car audio equipment is aesthetically incompatible in a classic car. The solution is to purchase a period radio which looks great and in keeping with the cars image and age. Unfortunately the sound quality, functionality and power output is very limited. No FM radio and only 2 watt crackly mono output. 94% of all radio broadcasting is now in FM only.

Period classic car radios have been professionally converted to a 100 watt per channel stereo FM Radios. The radios incorporate audio in connectors for attachment of MP3 or Ipod devices (lead supplied). Modern sound quality with real retro looks.

Radios have not simply been modified to take a external input and then reproduce in Mono using existing electronics (see EBAY listings). This is a full modern FM band radio conversion with a 100 Watt per channel output stage.

Aesthetically radios are the same in every respect to the original radio. The dial still illuminated when switched on. If the FM control is turned the tuner pointer still moves. Original control knobs are present but have been modified to give the following functions:-

Left Knob Volume Control
Right Knob FM Tuning (with digitallocking)
Preset Button One Radio On /Off
Preset Button TwoRadio / Ipod MP3 switching

Side Knob One Treble Control
Side Knob Two Bass Control


Radios are supplied with a lead which plugs into the back so your MP3 or IPOD can be hidden discreetly in a glove compartment or other area. (No dangling leads from the front of the radio).

Units are cosmetically excellent. Let the photos do the talking!
