My factory-installed radio (Lightning Audio-1500BT) died and I need a replacement and hopefully upgrade to better model. The model installed is only 4 inches deep but I think I need a larger (i.e. deeper) radio. Has anyone upgraded their radio? If so, what brand/model did you go to and how did you overcome the welded bracket that limits the depth of the radio?
I put this one in my 16", is is less than 4" deep. Fit perfectly. It is not going to rock the stage but it works for a golf cart.
I use the Sony MEX-BT100 it’s a Powerfull single Bluetooth head unit. Check out all the reviews on it. It’s got some serious power for a indash stereo.
This is the 100 watt unit. They have a cheeper 50 watt unit
Also jut FYI for anyone looking to do this.. most of these new radios are mostly empty inside the one I wanted was about 5.5” deep but I took out the “guts” and transferred it to the stock radio enclosure. Was super easy and give you a lot more options. Can upload some pics for anyone interested but you can get a nice screen with wireless apple carplay for < USD150
