Put it on random play and it'll last coast to coast with nary a repeat. Most songs can be loaded off the net anymore (YouTube and such) and converted to MP3 if you have the software to do it. Keeps this old man feeling a little younger to hear the Fleetwoods every now and then

Sounds like that may be what this old man needs also, time too look at new radios.

Thanks for the idea!!

Finished this little project last night. Pretty much exactly as described. Although I didn't have some tape around mine. I have read other people having to take off some funky tape to access theirs. But mine was visibly disconnected. I think I owe the engineer who chose to put that spring in there a big knuckle sandwich.
