How can I determine make and model of car radio without face?
Question:
Recently the face to my car radio was stolen. I have had the radio for about 8 years now and for the life of me can’t remember the make/model. I am thinking it is a Kenwood and I have searched the web looking at pics to determine the model but I am coming up empty handed probably due to the fact that the radio is so old. Any suggestion on how to figure it out from looking at the radio itself. I didn’t feel like pulling the unit out w/out knowing for sure that it would yield answers.
I am asking for how to find out the make and model…not for advice on how to replace the face or radio. I need the make and model for reporting purposes.

I been looking at radios for 20 years and i can not tell
you have to pull the radio
buy a new radio. you can find one cheap for under a $100
and if your radio came out in 1999 a cheap $50 $60 will give you the same sound. same thing happen to me but my face was going for $70 bucks on ebay so i just went and bought a new radio for $90
Someone already suggested that the only way to figure that out is to pull the radio. To that, I can only add that once it’s out, it makes sense to replace it. In electronics, 8 years is like 50 years for cars, and re-installing an ancient unit makes no sense unless it has some kind of emotional value for you,
Not to mention that finding a part would be a major problem considering, well, again, age.
pull it out of the dash, should have info on it somewhere
See if you can find any number’s on it .Then go on line with the numbers and see what it bring’s up .
